Firefox2 lets you disable java (as opposed to javascript) so you could try that and see if that helps, but it seems like a shot in the dark with too little info to me. OK, it looks like it's a javascript issue. With JAVA loaded myspace works fine. With javascript loaded firefox freezes. I'm guessing this is myspace's issue. --------------------------------- Cheap Talk? Check out Yahoo!
