In all fairness to programmers and page designers, advertising/marketing decisions generally have higher priorities so advertising sales are up, functionality and client positive experience is down.

It is quite common whenever I open multiple articles, each in its own browser tab, that my computer slows to a halt and I end up having to nuke the browser. Each tab is furiously contacting countless other sites. I have no idea what most of them are, I imagine they are all trackers and ad sites and etc. It really is absurd.

Again, apologies for the issues here. We feel we have isolated a few 3rd party ad scripts that are causing serious memory spike issues on IE and Edge. What browsers have ya'll been experiencing these issues on? We'd like to confirm the issues really are primarily on IE and Edge and not other browsers but if they are, we'll keep plugging away until we get to the bottom of this and resolve all issues.

Thanks for the quick reply. We will include FF in our investigation.
The web-designer's don't know that computer's have cooling fans
