Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI'm not sure where I should ask this but here goes: I often get a situation where I open a post and
nothing happens and the computer does not respond to anything I do. Then I get a msg saying "a script is running slowly which is slowing down your browser" (or something like that). It gives me the option to 'kill' the script, which I always do. This usually works, but not infrequently this will crash IE. This seems to be a bit less of a problem with Opera.
Has anyone else experienced this? Got any suggestions (Uh...please be tasteful).

This HP laptop is a crap-top. Can't wait to get my Apple back when school starts (we had to turn them in).

I am on Comcast using Safari. I used the option to kill the script and it worked. Glad to know that I have not been the only one experiencing this. When I switch to Firefox, I have not had the problem. Maybe it is an Internet glitch.
