Problem opening CC.

[Night Train]

Hi Shaun,

I am having problems opening CC in my browser.
I am using Firefox and I have tried internet explorer with the same result.


If I open my browser, then click on my CC bookmark the CC homepage opens and the little scrolling list of things opening up whizzes through and then hangs part way.
My processor is at 100%, memory at 70-80% and nothing works.

The point at which CC hangs is where this is showing in the list of things on the front page:

Waiting: P4-hkz7snaqrrsiu-tmnazqgc21gdmh7s-if-v6exp3-v6exp3-v4.netric.gstatic.com…

This doesn't happen with your other forums, or any other forums and websites, just CC.

To get this far I had to log on in PetChat and then open CC in a second tab. That seems to work fine.

Any thoughts?

Cheers.

I have just tried it again and same problem but a different hang point.

Maybe an advert on the frontpage when you aren't logged in is causing it to hang during page rendering. Just a thought

I've got similar problems on Firefox but OK on Explorer 8. Only CC, haven't tried it on another pc yet but it worked OK on my phone but Firefox hung every time including in safe mode.

I had a problem earlier that all my browsers crashed as soon as I tried to come onto CC so I had to install the NoJavaScript plugin on firefox before I could get in as it kept hanging on one of the scripts Shaun has runing when I try to log into CC.

I will try that.

OK, so far so good.
CC looks different but works.

No smilies, no pop ups though.

I can get on here on on the phone but pc keeps crashing. Windows XP Firefox and latest Flash player.

if you right mouse click you can allow and disallow individual javascripts on the site.

Yes, just been doing that on CC and other sites.
It is looking better.
Don't really understand what it is doing but it is doing it fine now, I think.
Thank you.

Sounds like the same thing I was getting.

Just tried to get in again and it locked my pc up, so I've turned it off and gone to bed to listen to music and read Kerrang.

I've been having trouble all day too. It's fine once logged in but logging in is very difficult as it just freezes and won't respond. I've got in this time by logging in to 4 of Shaun's other sites before this one would open.

What's going on?

Dodgy script in one of the add ons. Normal service will be resumed soon....I hope....

Unable to use CC on my wife's computer (tower) but no problems on my laptop. My wife runs XP Pro and Firefox while I use W7 and Firefox. It works fine on my wife's computer in Internet Explorer, it is only Firefox with a problem.

Sorry to say this but I am glad others are also having the same problems. I thought it was a problem with us but knowing it isn't only us is reassuring.
