    Is anyone else having problems with Chron.com when using Firefox or Safari. I've talked to a couple people who said that when they go to Chron.com using Firefox or Safari on Mac that it will work for a bit, but then the computer locks up on them. Same thing for me.

    I tried blocking all cookies not coming from the actual site - Chron seems to have a bunch of ad cookies on there - but I'll have to test it for a while.

    IE and Netscape seem un-effected.

    I've had this happen A LOT since the latest upgrade to Firefox. The Chron only crashes on me periodically, it doesn't do it every time. It is very annoying. I also can't do some online billing, Sprint for instance, crashes on me... I hate having to open IE.

    Works fine here. It appeared to be locked up for about 30 sec and left-clicking the dock icon showed a "application not response" message. But the front page was loaded correctly at the end.

    Safari crashed more often on me since 1.3 update. I am still using 10.3.
