hi, i cant view this forum properly with midori and google chrome, also other sites and I frequently have to kill them because they hang taking all cpu. This doesnt happen with netsurf, I supose is a problem with flash plugin? http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/8098/20110105144044800x600sc.png
The problem with this forum is caused by Javascript and CSS and some browser's engines not being able to process them.
As for some flash sites - yes, I noticed a similar trend and it's a real pain with flash heavy sites. I use flashblock with Firefox and Adblock Plus to try and curb this. Chrome also has a copy of Flashblock and Adblock which you could try.
