For about a week now I have been experiencing a strange browser 'freezing' or locking-up when undertaking searches at Fotolia.

The search results appear and then a second or two after you begin scrolling down to view them the browser completely locks for about 15-20 seconds, then frees itself, then locks again for a similar time before freeing itself again. When you go to the next page of results the same thing happens. During the freeze the browser is totally locked preventing you clicking on another tab, etc. It is very annoying and wastes a lot of time.

Is anyone else experiencing the same? I'm running XP-Pro with IE8.

no problems as well

have you tried the usual tips?
