Page freezes..

Saturday, March 3, 2007 by vStyler | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues

Maybe its just me , and maybe its been addressed already but...


..on WC and WC only ..in IE6...whenever i go to a new page its like IE freezes for a few secs before I can scroll...almost seems like a ram issue or something, my fan runs faster and hear my comp working harder, just for a sec or two.



I have a 3.4 Dual Core so I dont think my processor should be slowing down just browsing the forums.

Any Ideas?

It has to be one of the more annoying 'features' of the forums.....

firefox doesn't seem to have the problem, but in IE7 if i try and load a WC link in a new tab i get an error, but it never freezes for me when loading any WC pages in the same window, so i dunno what it could be. Now i only use IE7 to go to the microsoft update site everything else i use firefox (shameless plug)

People having issues should really try some script-blocking plugins.

If it will work, im all for that, not sure what it is though, can you give an example?

also.. should we really have to just to browse a forum efficiently?

Talk about page 'freezes'.....just saw a wooly mammoth, a sabre tooth tiger walk by while this page was loading.....and in the background there was a squirrel trying to pull an acorn out of the ice.

Any chance something like that could be used to determine what script is causing the freezing issues?

Sounds like a reasonable way to nail down the issue Andrew.

The only script here that I have AdBlocked is google analytics. I have no page freezes.

Isn't he talking about the extension no script? for FF for example...Which I use...I have blocked google-analytics and no page freezes here. Ialos use FasterFox which gives me the exact time it takes a page to load...average time 4.93 seconds. This is not the case when loading aninmation loaded pages ect but that is expected but still page does not freeze. It takes an average usually 20.470 secs to load a personal profile ....

Edit...lol Purrball...too slow

Can you explain how to do that in IE6?

PurBall, that was one of the first things that I tested (removing google analytics). It didnt make any difference in my tests.

Since I blocked it (a few mins ago) pages do seem to load faster for me.

Wanna hear wierd...I logged off and got only momentary cpu spikes...logged back on and this page dosnt hang...but the previous page does everytime.  

After several test...big difference between being logged on and logged of.  

And a big difference between this page and the previous page.

Please dont bump the post just for the sake of bumping it. I'll report back when I have something to report. If you dont hear anything from me for a bit, that means its still being worked on. We dont just ignore issues on the websites and hope they go away
