MAJOR technical problem with the Org

OK, huh, I know this is weird but here's the deal: everytime and I say E-VE-RY-TIME I try to access an old Org page through a Google search, it makes Chrome, and eventually my whole computer crash.

I navigate inside the Org: no problem. There used to be many last year but obviously something has been fixed because I never have any more crash as long as I'm navigating inside the org. But the second I try to access the Org through Google: I'm DEAD. This has happened countless times and it systematically happens with BOTH my computers, so one comp' or one Windows or one Chrome can't be blamed.

It wasn't always like this, it's been happening for maybe 6 months to one year at most, can't remember when it started.

I just crashed BOTH my PC's trying to get an info from an old thread sad

Needless to say, the org is the ONLY site with which I have such an issue.

Being into a lot of research regarding Prince, and the Org being a goldmine of infos, this is really frustrating.

Does it happen to other people?

What can I do about it?

yeah, this has been happening for awhile. whethere you use the google site search at the top of the page or click on an org result in a regular google search, it makes IE crash. or at least that particular tab, but usually it takes the whole browser down with it.

this mf is getting rickety as hell.

happens on firefox too. If I wait about 15 seconds through "not responding" I can usually read the old threads just fine. Takes a little patience.

This is so weird, I don't even understand how it is possible and why it happens. glad to see it ain't just me, though. I tried waiting but it won't help: no other option than full reboot in my case.

Somone needs to update the org website, imo. or possibly the link between P.org and google....(server configurations and algorithms are way beyond my knowledge lol )

I can visit hundreds of global sites successfully without a problem, and as soon I arrive at Prince.org via google, there is an instant script error "http://s.ytimg.com/yt/jsbin......." and the site crashes in any browser, even in safemode i cannot solve it.

On Windows 7 you view the thread after clicking on the google results. Then you try to scroll down the thread (it won't let you), so then just start clicking in the middle of the screen til it fades and says "not responding" at the top. About 20 seconds later you should be able to read the thread and scroll down. Don't know if it works on other versions of Windows or MACS. I always use Firefox on the org as well.

Mmm. The crashing thing used to happen to me all the time using IE, then I made the change to chrome and all has been well.

This still happens for me - it seriously p*sses me off mad

It looks like an unresponsive javascript code of some sorts. Anyone here more technically-minded have any clues?
