Remember - it got crushed to death between Netscape Combusticator and Internet Exploder, sometime in the 90s. Now it's all Web 2.0(TM) - plenty of javascript offering useless drivel, making sure that it only works in One Browser. Like Consumer Institute. It doesn't even work properly in firefox, and sure as anything will do naught in anything else. Or Kiwibank. It only works in firefox now (which on Linux I view as a pretty shoddy browser).

OT Press co hogging cpu usage
Hi All, has anyone looked at the press co website today? I am having trouble with it hogging cpu usage, in excess of 95% at times, and being unable to scroll the site because the scrollbar is locked up. Last time i tried over 130 images were d/l. Mouse response when trying to change apps is also appauling. Barry
