Following the URL supplied, this site crashes FF dead in it it's tracks.  If the link is opened in a new tab, a 'unnamed' window remains (in Fluxbox, at least) that cannot be closed.

I have disabled NoScript, Flash blocker etc. (even disable Gnash and Adobe Flash), yet the hartd crash happens each time.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Follow the link

Actual Results:  
Crash

Expected Results:  
No Crash
