Default Internet Explorer locks up

Not sure if this is affecting anyone else but it has happened to me several times, infact nearly everytime I visit Briskoda but not other sites.

My browser freezes and I can't do anything only kill the app in Task Manager.
It looks as if the page is not fully loaded, eventually the window goes black and it times out.

Apologies if this has been documented somewhere else but it's got me puzzled at the moment.

I might try a different flavour browser just to prove it.

Maybe try one of the freeware 'bolt-on' additions for IE i.e. they sit on top of IE7 and have many enhancements.
Avant Browser and Flashpeak SlimBrowser are both very good.

Avant Browser::Home

Slim Browser - Tabbed web browser with popup killer

Not using Vista on my desktop only on my laptop which is fine.

Currently running XP sp3 and by mistake fired up IE6 as I have removed IE7 and it has happened again.

Currently posting using Firefox which is also fine.

Confused. Yes me too.
