I can't reproduce this (I tested with SeaMonkey on both OS X 10.3.9
and 10.4.7).

Please try installing (or reinstalling) Apple's most recent version of
Java for your platform.

Apple's Java downloads are available at
http://developer.apple.com/java/download/.  If you're running OS X
10.4.7 you should download J2SE 5.0 Release 4.  If you're running OS X
10.3.9 you should download the "Java Security Update" dated
2005-09-13.

(Version 0.9.5+g of the Java Embedding Plugin, which is bundled with
all current Mozilla.org browsers, seems to be less tolerant of broken
Java installations than were previous versions.  I've had one other
similar report, which was cleared up by installing/reinstalling Java.)

Reinstalling Java had no effect. This site still freezes for me with every build up to 1.06

SeaMonkey v1.0.x is not supported anymore.

Can you reproduce with SeaMonkey v1.1.9 ?

Comment 4

With v. 1.1.9, the behavior is no long present.
