[fixed] Strange new "script running"

I've been getting an error message for the last 3 days:

"Stop running this script?
A script on this page is causing Internet Explorer to run slowly. If it continues to run,your computer might become unresponsive."

And it does slow down to a crawl just before the message. Anything I should do about this? Besides clicking yes, that is.

  • Just now, in Groups, when I clicked on FS Refugees & Friends. I'll add here when it happens again.

  • I'm also getting this message in Firefox 4 on the Tiny Speckles group page (http://beta.glitch.com/groups/RIF10DULOV12MJT/). The browser freezes for about 5-10 seconds, and sometimes this message appears:

    "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

    Script: c1.glitch.bz/js/core_48343_1306523097.gz.js:561"

  • I figured the Speckles page took forever to completely load because of the huge list of group members.

    Same "busy script' error screen while trying to get into Tiny Speckles discussions.

    FF 4.0.1 running on XP

  • Same thing happens to me on the groups - FS Refugees & Friends AND Tink Speckles. All other groups are ok.

  • Ok, can you clear browser cache (to get rid of misbehaving scripts) and reload the affected pages tell us if you still see a problem?

    thanks!

  • This is weird. I am getting this when using my laptop but not while I am using my desktop. I do have FF4 in my desktop but have an older version of IE. I recently tried to update IE in my laptop. So, I have a feeling this is a problem with the interaction of FF and IE and has nothing to do with Glitch BUT I may also have no clue what I'm talking about.
