Support forum? Looks to say handles CF homepage reports, so here is my problem rather than PM’ing it to a mod/admin.

I have FireFox the very latest version. Whenever I try to load any thread were the user Faith Guardian posts on or creates, it locks up my browser completely every time. Something in his post such as the avatar or sig or something, is causing critical problems to my browser. I’m not sure if anyone else is having this problem, but I’m mentioning it here. I’m having no such problem with any other member post, just what ever this specific member is trying to load into his posts. I’ve been able to view his posts in the past, but since the CF2 change it only causes my browser to hang and crash every time. I can't access his CF homepage either, I was going to submit a report through that, but of course that will not load but just crashes firefox.

May want to check into that? I figured I'd mention this rather than just putting him on ignore so to block his posts. If there is something really amiss with what he is trying to load, then maybe it can be corrected, otherwise I'll just use ignore on this member if nothing comes of this.

It may be javascript in the signature? I've had that problem before. Will see later if I find some posts.

I've looked at the account, and there may be some javascript my browser is blocking in the smilie sign, since the sign appears blank. Otherwise I'm having no problem viewing the posts.

Well, problem not resolved, it still crashes my browser pretty hard. Added to ignore list. From my error code, it's trying to force some javascript remote module dialog from igoogle which my browser wants nothing of. Generally, javascript isn't welcomed on my browser, but somehow it's still trying to load for whatever reason and causing FF to throw a fit.
