Computer freezing up Part Dos

agreed, definitely your web browser has issues with some feature on this site.  You may want to try out a different browser too, I have IE9, Firefox, and Chrome on my computer.

Thanks, CrashTestDummy. Next time I'm on here, I'll have to try the "stop-and-refresh" trick and see if it works.

I've found forum websites sometimes hang.  Watching what's being accessed at the bottom of the screen (in FireFox), it usually hangs on some ad page, or sponsor.  I'll usually stop the load and hit the refresh button and things usually go from there.  I figure some advertisers try to make things too flashy and eye-catching, which can sometimes cause pages to not work well.  It's terribly annoying, but I usually get by with a stop and refresh.

Ditto, Junkie..  Sounds like a user-end issue..

Granted it's not the fastest place on the web, but it's running on quite common forum software & other than the general speed I cant say that I have any problems with it (it's up & running / available more often than some other forums I use...).

If you haven't done so already updating your browser & clearing your caches may help.
