Clicking on this link: http://www.thisislondon.com/dynamic/news/story.html?in_review_id=489715&in_review_text_id=447099shuts down my browser (IE5)...sad part of it was that it happened about five times before I figured out what was going on. Since folks are commenting, I presume it's not happening to everyone? Just tried it three more times, same thing. You know, I saw a white van with some strange antennas on it driving around here earlier...

It isn't happening to me on IE 6. I used to run into browser killing pages when I was using Opera, which was otherwise an excellent browser. Clean out your cache, history files, and cookies and try again.

Funny, it works just fine in N6.1 , I found to my dismay. Pretty gross link to be making such a fuss over, don't you think?

Well, now that I was able to read it in Netscape, I see what Lynsey is saying...It's obvious my IE browser is so advanced it has developed its own discriminatory stupidity filter. AI indeed.
