Does this forum make your computer freeze up?
Every time I get on here, my computer keeps freezing up. I keep getting the spinning wheel (Mac), then it's OK, then I scroll down a thread a bit and it freezes up again. Only on this site. Any ideas?

Doesn't free, but the page will refuse to load (giving like a 404 error/timeout) freqently. a refresh seems to solve the problem temporarily.
1.4 GHZ Macbook Air running Chrome. It's annoying, especially when I have several BF tabs open.

Not on my five-year-old iMac. Mac OS X 10.6.8, and I use Safari. I only get the beach ball slowdown when I'm using many other apps along with Safari. The problem might be with a glitch in Safari. Google "beach ball Mac Safari" and you might find a solution.

I have vista with a duel core processer and there is a short spining wheel wait when you go to a different page, but works fine when you scroll down the page

No, but a couple of the cretins who joined us for the Tour make me wish it did. This is mainly directed at the Pro Racing for the Fans forum BTW. Not the fine, intelligent repartee we enjoy here on the 41.
