Well, I would in fact watch The Times if I could. Using Firefox 1.5, the site simply crashes the browser every time I try to enter. It was doing that yesterday with one piece (Melanie McDonaugh’s) and is now doing it with the front page.
Anyone else having the same problem? Is there one specific ad or something which is causing such crashes? (Crashes IE as well.)
Not seeing it here Tim,
The Times is working ok on FF, IE and Opera.
If it’s crashing both browsers, sounds like your version of Flash may need updating.
Tim adds: Ta! That’s fixed it, at least so far.
Hmm… It’s working on my firefox (and I’m using a beta of v2!)
I get it with the Telegraph every so often, but not the Times.
Sometimes the Times website starts going monolithically slowly when I’m browsing it using Firefox. Turning off JavaScript before entering the page helps (it’s the adverts that are doing it).
