My PS3 keeps freezing when browsing AVF.

Anyone know what could be causing this. It seems my PS3 always freezes when going onto the AVF forums on my PS3. Thanks for any help.

There was one a few weeks ago due to that Bourne ad but now they're gone I don't know what else could be causing it.

Re: My PS3 keeps freezing when browsing AVF.

just before you enter AV Forums, go into tools and turn javascript off.
That should solve the problem.

Re: My PS3 keeps freezing when browsing AVF.

I am glad there is a thread on this.

Everything was fine for me until firmware 2.7.

Now after 2.7 coming to these forums always crashes my PS3 forcing a hard reset.

Even if I just come to the forum front page but not navigate through any threads and exit the browser immediately, still then moving along the tabs on my PS3 crashes the PS3.

If I knew it weren't such a reliable place I would have suspected a virus or other drive by malware on the website of some sort.

Next time I try I will see about turning off javascript
