Has anybody experienced the Brews Bros board causing FireFox to lock up? IE?
I'm seeing hard lockups with Firefox where I have to 3-finger and end the process to recover. Anybody else?

Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors -- and miss.

Nope, not me. I am using Firefox 3.0.8 and it works just fine.

Lots of firefox users here, yet this is the first I've heard of it. You might try disabling any suspect FF plug ins and slowly re-enabling them incrementally to see if it is one of them causing it.

I had a problem that started out like yours.
Then it became "Cannot resole DNS" errors.
The link below is a .pdf of one prob. with the lifeboat.
Visit My Website
Had similar problems with the BlueBoard.
Also had browser locking up when tring to access either site.
I think it was the local server. (Wytheville, Va.)
Got home last night and haven't had a problem since.

And the way to deal with failure is not to invent scapegoats or to lash out out at your followers.

as to justify his making an exception to the law, custom, or morality in favor of himself.

Hmmm, on further review, it seems to be only happening at work. Both FF, so I'll have to troubleshoot further Monday.

George, any more ideas? Camino still hangs and crashes on me and it seems to be when the page starts to get info from google-analytics...

Hmmm... I wonder if something on your system or network is blocking Google Analytics. Perhaps it classifies it as spyware. This might cause the browser to hang while waiting for an element to load that's never going to actually load. If that sounds like a possibility, then the fix might be to either whitelist GA so that the request can complete, or block GA in the browser so that the request is never made in the first place.

Interesting... not being an IT kind of guy, I'll have to figure out how to selectively block GA to try that... though I think our network doesn't block GA??, because I can use Safari without problems

So, did you take the time to read some of the references and form an intelligent opinion; or did you just click "I'm Feeling Lucky"

Absolutely! I prefer the Netscape 7.2 out of habit. It is Firefox based. I, too, experienced lock-up. In fact, the browser crashed 'cause I wasn't fast enough to give it the 3 fingers, so I ended up giving it (the browser) the 1 finger salute.
