Every time i come to a4u website it kind of basically crashes my laptop for about 15 seconds, not letting me click anything, its only ever happens when click on a4u.

Anyone else get this ?

well i guess this is an issue either im purely experiencing (although i find that odd that its purely me) , simply meaning im not visiting the site much at all, its a shame, shame the forums gone down hill really it seems

It works fine on my laptop. Have you tried it in a different browser?

a4u's has been extensively tested on IE7,8, FF 3.6, Safari, Opera on multiple OS' and we've not seen a problem with performance. Infact, huge steps with the release were taken to speed the site up.

This seems like a single point of failure so I'd suggest trying on a different computer over the same internet connection to see if that's the issue first. If you can write that off, try the same computer on a different internet connection. Then try a different browser or OS, see if the problem lies there.

For the record, can you quote youre set up so we can test using a similar environment.

If I try to click in the search thing it all goes strange and doesn't work - takes about 4 seconds before I can click in it - but thats the only wierd thing happening for me.

I seem to remember writing something very similar...

It temporarily kills my Firefox, taking it off screen and disables the mouse as well - can't click on anything.

Same as max99.

Latest version of Firefox.
Windows 7.

Not visiting as much as previously because its just irritating.
Also search may as well not be there.
