I can't figure out which ad it is, as it keeps crashing my computer before the page will load but given the random nature of which threads I click into causing it, I'm guessing it must be one of the rotating ads.

Throws up a Flash error and then freezes my Mac. Anyone experiencing similar??

Anyone?

This crashes my computer every time so it's no PH for me...

I'm getting something similar on my Android device - it doesn't seem to matter what I look at on the PH forums but a few seconds after anything loads up the browser closes.

It's happening to me now on Android. Annoying.

I'm using Safari but am now trying with Firefox to see if that works any better.

Any word from anyone at PH? It's really irritating if it's just one rogue banner ad...

I know, meaning the OP has been here for days now... confused

Or have I misunderstood you?

All OK here now on native Android browser - seems to have been fine all weekend.

Nothing happening here on our Macs or Androids. If you can see any correlation with one particular ad or section of the site, do let me know.

Thanks Matt, I will do.

Is there a way of finding out what ad should be displaying through viewing the source or anything? The reason I ask is that once the error is triggered and before my computer crashes, the ad doesn't display, so I'm struggling to identify the culprit!
