FWIW, the WaMCom Mozilla build will still bring up the page. Admittedly, I'm running 9.0.4, but I don't see why Mozilla wouldn't bring up the page under 9.1. > Yeah.

It's the >high-end overuse of JavaScript that crashes it. I have to ask: has LEM undergone a re-vamp recently? I ask because whenever I've looked at a typical LEM page in the recent past through Mozilla, the page formatting was funky (text was readable, but ads and links were misaligned, IIRC). Now, however, everything looks exactly as it should. Whether purely by accident or deliberate design, it's nice to be able to pull up a page and have it look right on an antiquated browser: well done.
