Right Click "Open in new window" freezes the new window...

Well, since the new forum look, everytime I right click on a link and select "Open in new window" the new window opens, attempts to access the URL of the link and then freezes. The original window remains fine. This happens every time but it is ONLY on this site.
IE6, XP Pro SP2.

Right, I don't get this, but I don't use IE6.
Do any other IE6 users get the same problem?

I'll give it a try later on one of my other machines - when i can be bothered to boot one up (Hard work using wake on lan... no really it is! :P)

Just tested, and I can confirm it happens on one of my other PCs.
I'm about to boot VMWare, I'll test it there too along with another physical PC later.

Ok, tested in VMWare using the same OS & IE and it does NOT suffer from freezing.
Looks like a problem with my physical machines so far. Dunno what is causing it though...
