I Think Google Analytics Is Hanging Up This Site

This is a problem that we had a long time ago and if I remember correctly it was Google Analytics that was the problem.

Here is what's happening.

Go to the OT Forum main page. Go inside any topic to read it. So far, so good. Now click back on the "Off Topic Forum" at the top to go back to the main forum. Still good.

Now, wait a minute or so and hit F5 refresh or click the little refresh symbol on your browser. I use Chrome so I have that little curved arrow.

What now happens is that the Browser "spins". It doesn't completely finish loading the page. The refresh symbol turns to an X and just hangs there. It stays like this indefinitely until I go back into another thread, at which time it stops and all is good. Click on Off Topic Forum at the top again, taking you back to the main OT page and again, all is good until you hit refresh again and the problem starts again. And no matter how many times you hit refresh the browser still doesn't fully refresh.

As I said, the last time this happened, it was a Google Analytics problem so I suspect it's the same thing now, though I can't be sure.

Is anybody else having this same problem?

    I have had these problems in the past (presumed it was my own problem) and simply closed the tab and reopened it. After following your directions, it didn't happen - but I do understand what you mean. It hasn't happened to me in a while, now.
