Mousing over the topic "MOVED: Is this a good gaming pc?" topic eats 100% CPU
This is the only one in any of the discussion groups where a mouse-over of the topic eats your machine.
It locks up steam and eats up 100% cpu. I've verified that the ones before and after do not do this.

Of all things to eat my computer alive... a forum post... and one thats technically not even here...

I'd gladly speak to an admin and if you have the capability to watch my network traffic while I mouse-over (I'll suddenly not be online anymore) you can probably deduce whats going on. Oh, steam will still be running, but I'll be on my way to force-quitting since it will be locked up.

Seems to have been oficially finally moved now, but if you type in "is this a good gaming pc?" (with the quotes) I guarantee you steam will do something funny once it gets to the screen.

Mmhm. I've reported this before in the past. I believe it has something to do with the very long "single word" as the opening link to the thread. In this case it's a long URL.

It doesn't lock up a web browser; only Steam.
