What OS/browser are you using? I have no idea what you are talking about. The only time I have ever seen anything like what you are describing is when maybe something is messed up with flash or an external pdf viewer. But even that doesn't freeze up the mouse.

Also I am a pretty heavy browser user, I have 20+ tabs open on average and a bunch of plugins.




Usually use Chrome on a Win7. I've seen this happen about once a day or every other day. Comment got upvotes so I guess I'm not alone in this experience?


This happens to me with Chrome on Mac OS.


This doesn't happen to me either. Same environment. Unless your can provide a reproducible test-case your comment is baseless.


I also experience that randomly, using Chrome on Win7 and Snow Leopard. The freezing can be up to 30sec that I sometimes think my system hangs.


If a web page can freeze your whole OS, I'd think there's something wrong with your OS...


I use firefox and chrome. Does this also happen to anyone using ff?


Happens a lot to me on Firefox / Windows 7.
