    Anybody else get this? On certain sites the page takes a while to load then shows a message that reads:-

    A script on this page is busy or may have stopped responding.
    You can stop the script now or wait to see if it completes.

    Any ideas?

    It's not AA1-specific; I've seen it on my desktop system too. Not sure which distro; desktop has Fedora (9, 10, Rawhide), Ubuntu (Intrepid, Jaunty), and Puppy (4.06, 4.11)

    It's been a fairly common error since Firefox 1.5. It happens on pages that are loading a lot of scripts or if you are experiencing slower internet connections. Pretty simple fix.

    Go to about:config
    Find the value dom.max_script_run_time.
    Double click
    Enter a number greater than what is there. I've got 20 in mine.

    In your address/url bar. A simple Google can give this information.
