why does my PC freeze on this website?

[Impret-Sir]

Every time I try to look at a particular website, www.firebox.com, my PC freezes, just as the homepage reaches the same point, about 20% loaded. The mouse, screen and keyboard freeze and I have to re-boot the PC. Is this a fault at my end or theirs?

There's obviously a conflict between the site's coding and your browser software. If you're using Internet Explorer you'll need to go to Microsoft's update site and check that you've got every available update and patch both for IE and for Windows. If you're using something better than IE (and anything's better than IE!) just go to the update page for the relevant browser and get the latest version. (If you're not already using Firefox, now's the time to change: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ ).
