If it happens again, post a screen shot of the FT page that has the ads on it.

Ad hanging Mac Safari on Mavericks 10.9.5
 
Some sort of Ad is causing Safari to hang and stop rendering the page on Mac OS X 10.9.5. I can't tell which ad as it happens before it is displayed, but it started in the past couple of days and is very frequent in all forums.

:mad:

I am blocking third party cookies and third party trackers. Is there anything else I can do to prevent targeted ads from showing up? When I am viewing FT on my phone, I often get ads from this store I shop at.

pretty sure turning off flash does not eliminate all of the crashes (for me)

I had the same problem with windows after update to the latest adobe flash player.
It is turnout some flash banners load 100-300 MB of ram and utilized 10-20 % of the cpu.
I dont know is it from new flash player uprate or are these flash movie adds, but after uninstall of the flash player the problems are gone.

youre saying you went back a prior version of flash? interesting.

No, just remove Flash. Or at least block it on FlyerTalk. Without blocking Flash, FlyerTalk quickly consumes gigabytes of RAM and 100% CPU use.

Hyatt Pop up Ad
 
Starting 10Jun15, pop-up window for Hyatt Get 2 nights Free

I normally don't get pop ups with FT. This one is very annoying

winkny Jun 11, 2015 7:09 am

There is a new version of adobe flash 18 and something ( the version from last week was 17 and something)

It seems that the problem is with the add not the flash player.
With just one page of flyertalk loaded and one flash add ( it is like yourtube video, but play over and over again). Load my pc with 200 MB and 12% of the of the cpu power, this is just the load of the adobe flash player + what the browser load.

My pc is with i5 2,5 Ghz and 8 GB of ram so 12% cpu load and 200 MB is a lot.

If I click on OK, it leads to:

Happened only on FT.

When accessing the forum I have text in black letters displayed at the top of various pages. The text appears to be an Ad that wasn't rendered correctly.

I am using Safari on OSX.

Here's an example. (Look in the area of the Sub-Forums section)
