Is anyone else experiencing issues when viewing the Max forums using Safari on iOS? I've found it can actually 'lock up' the browser, meaning I can't press any buttons (bookmarks, switch window etc.) until the page has finished loading.

It's something I've noticed since the forum changed, I haven't comprehensively explored the extent of the issue yet. It's definitely not device-specific as far as I can tell. It happens on the iPad but is most noticeable on the iPhone. I actually upgraded my iPhone this week and it's the same on the new handset.

It's not necessarily a major issue, although I check the forum quite frequently throughout the day on the move (wi-fi and 3G) and it's pretty frustrating.

(Not sure if this should have been under 'Misc', apologies)

I have not noticed that. Does it freeze your device?

Mmm, I think I've isolated the issue. Try going to Settings->Safari->Advanced->Website Data. Delete the cycling74.com data there then try browsing to the forum at the same time as another website, or just generally browse through your bookmarks or something.

I usually Private Browsing on both of my iPhone 4S and iPad 2 (snap, Rodrigo) which doesn't hold onto to any data. I think this process is what is causing the problem. With Private Browsing off, I only get the slowed experience on the first visit to the site.

Working fine on my ipad2. No private browsing though.
