Have you noticed that there are more and more websites

In general, Ajax improves the responsiveness of websites in my experience. The things that slow down or freeze the browser (again, in my experience) tend to be Flash or PDFs - so it's all Adobe's fault!
Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p
Some version of Flash Player not only freezes the IE7 but crash it instantly. Usually the people blame for this crashes IE or even Vista, because the real offender is not so obvious. We need to blame MS for their REAL sins, for example: MSDN sh*t, not the fake ones.

I can see that fine, so it is not a problem on the server. If you don't have the proper language option installed on your computer, then you will see either ??? or three boxes.

that will freeze your browser, and sometimes your whole computer, for several minutes? It doesn't matter if IE7 or IE8, for those who are about to recommend FF, it freezes FF, too. Should we blame this on AJAX or some other new annoying technology? P.S. For a long time I thought AJAX is a toilet cleaner.

Oh that's weird. In IE8 it's broken. In FireFox it's perfect. The conspiracy continues!!

I don't recall ever browsing a site that does that. However most of my browsing is FF under 64 bit linux.

Some AJAX implementations are so awful. I'm not going to rip any particular company (K2) but this one vendor has an interface that loads one web page. Then instead of having multiple web pages, it simply puts the entire page in an ajax request. So you can view what are essentially many different pages but the URL never changes. It simply puts a dumb graphic on the page while loading. People seemed to have missed the point. AJAX should be used to updated a small section of a page. Many developers are just lazy (or ignorant) so they drop an entire Form inside a ASP.Net 3.5 AJAX panel and BAM! The page is the latest and greatest AJAX technology with no post backs. Only every time you click a button the damn thing locks up your browser and the entire page posts back anyway with added scripts. So the ajax request is actually slower than doing a full post back. It is ridiculous. **** End of rant.
I didn't get any requirements for the signature

In IE8, select menu "View", "Encoding", "Unicode (UTF-8)", worked fine for me without doing this.

I find that it's requests for information that bogs things down, because they have to be constantly run through security procedures. I've noticed that the number of requests for information have multiplied geometrically, of late -- mainly requests from (Java, Flash, and/or Javascript) advertising banners, and the like. If it happens a lot on a site, I set one of my firewalls to "Don't do a damned thing without asking me!", then I note down the sources of the requests, map them to 127.0.0.1 in my hosts file, and open the site again.

Meh! I'm not a silvertight supporter as well. I do native language programming for that matter. :)

You don't have to install the language on your computer in order to see it displayed on your browser. It must be perfectly readable (he said he can see it in FF). No, I am not commenting about IE. :)

And if that doesn't work, there's always IE 5. :laugh:

As with any multithreaded application it could be any number of things that are hogging the CPU cycles (Javascript UI libraries, AJAX, ActiveX, Flash, Silverlight, PDF, etc.). Anything that pushes the processing to the client side can have this effect.
