Build Id: 2000042808 Go to the URL above, highlight text, and immediately after, attempt to scroll with the mousewheel. The browser completely freezes/locks-up for about two seconds, at which point scrolling with the mousewheel works fine and at normal speed... This may be related to, or even a dup of, many of the "long page scrolls slowly" reports I've been seeing around, though it seems like a different situation.
Nevermind...this seems to have nothing to do with the mousewheel. Highlighting text on that page in general locks up the browser for a couple seconds every time.
