    It was a user spamming youtube links. Posts in AH deleted, site ban requested etc etc.

    Damn, meant to post this in Feedback. Sorry.

    Was it the actual spam links crashing the browser or just that the mods were working on that thread when I was trying to access it?

    Probably the number of youtube links being rendered at once or something. I don't think us doing things to the thread would crash your browser. Then, I'm not a techie type tbh.

    He posted the same spam on a number of threads but funnily enough they didn't crash Firefox on my machine. It was really slow but Firefox coped with it :)
