I browse several motoring websites on my Chromebook but as soon as I go to PistonHeads my book freezes up and the only way to reset it is complete reboot.

I have tried a power wash (factory refresh) no joy.

Any ideas?

We released new code yesterday that reduces the weight of the page that hopefully will solve this issue - try again today and let me know if it has improved?

Sorry to report but 2 days ago the issue arose again. Now every time I click on pistonheads the Chromebook freezes up. I have just performed a complete system recovery this end and it's still the same.

Every other website I use I have no issues with, sadly it's just this one.

HELP!

We have seen the page loads across the site increase quite a lot in the last week - we are investigating what is causing this as a matter of urgency, so will update when I know more.

Sorry you are struggling, hopefully we can sort this.

Update - Yesterday I installed 'Adblock' on my device and the issue has been resolved.

P.S. Just to let you know the results from the Adblock statistics. It bocked 277 Adverts for this site in just 1 day, something which I find astonishing.

Don't go to the Daily Mail site, you'll get to 300 ads in about 10 pages.
