This is a bit odd

And in the spirit of making problems vanish by mentioning them:

I can't read my friends' page. If I try, Firefox shuts down.

My Friends page loads fine in Firefox, so I suspect you have suspect Friend :-)

Mac or Windoze? I have that problem at home occasionally with my eMac - only solution seems to be to reboot. Works fine in other browsers, and only happens in FF about once a week.

Someone posted a gigantic picture or something in metaquotes, and it seems to be having scattered bad effects. It might be related to that.

Seems likely. I'm currently reading my no-communities filter to get around that, and hoping it will go away soon.

However, I'm running 1.0.02 under Win98, and something called poopinyourmouth.com on your Friends page seemed to lock it up rather solidly...

BTW, did you note the Firefox/JavaScript bug report?

I don't know what to make of that.

Nope.

I think it's your friends page, or an entry thereon, rather than Firefox; I use Firefox also, and I'm not having trouble. It looks like an earlier poster may have nailed the specific problem.

The problem went away.

I must be blind or stupid because I can't see anything on my friends page called poopinyoumouth.

Dude, whose username I sadly missed, posted to [livejournal.com profile] metaquotes; I guess your friends page was set to display that. [livejournal.com profile] metaquotes mod deleted the post and hopefully banned the dude, so all is well now.
