I don't know if it's an issue on my end or not, but I've noticed that everytime I load up the main forum page it temporarily freezes my browser, and I think it has something to do with the shoutbox, because whenever it's open I would be stuck for at least 15-20 seconds, and even when it's closed I still experience a short, one second freeze. I'm using Firefox 3.5.3 if that helps in any way.
