I'm finding that I'm completely unable to import any spreadsheets, CSV files or 
indeed copy any clipboard information into Google Refine without it hanging. 
Can you help? This is an example of the sort of data I've been trying to import.

Update: It appears to be a problem with Google Chrome. Great. Works with 
Firefox.

Elksie - That's surprising since Chrome is one of the primary browsers we 
recommend.  I just tried that file with Refine 2.5 using both Chrome 
20.0.1132.47 m and Firefox 13.0.1 on Windows 7 without problems.  If you'd like 
us to look into the your problem, please create a new issue with the version 
numbers for Refine, Chrome, and your operating system.

Lindsay - Did you resolve your problem?  Feel free to reopen this issue with 
additional information (e.g. the file that fails for you) if you're still 
having problems.
