You have some advertisements on FlyerTalk which go by video (usually on the bottom of a page), using the flash player. I have now had several occasions where these videos 'captured' my RAM and froze my browser. The remedy is to kill the flash player before it kills the browser. Flash memory usage may rapidly grow to over 3 gigabyte after opening a thread on FT.

Tried with Chrome and Firefox, tried on 2 different machines and the result is the same. Something tells me there might either be a bug or the advertising company is doing a bad job. Don't have the problem on any other website I tend to visit.

Is this a known issue? Anyone knows a remedy?
Can you take a screen shot of the entire page so we can see the ads? If it is the SPG Amex ad, there is already a thread about this.
