User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0
Build ID: 20120312181643

Steps to reproduce:

I 'm observing  'Not Responding'/'Unresponsive script' warnings and chromehangs on website boston.com/bigpicture since new release Firefox 11 (versions 12 & 13 are affected too).

STR: start with a fresh profile (no JS blocker add-on like ABP, NS etc) and open http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2012/02/gerd_ludwigs_long_shadow_of_ch.html e.g.
Same result in safe mode.

Firefox displays 'Not responding' then 'Unresponsive script' warnings:

----------
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
