Sometimes homepage will refuse to load #305

Please give a precise description of the problem and steps to reproduce it.

Sometimes when I launch my browser, my homepage will refuse to load.  Instead, 
it just sits there spinning in the tab with a white window.  In addition, other 
tabs won't load until the homepage tab is closed.

At which URL is this problem observed?

www.google.com (but I'm logged into Google and using the iGoogle layout as my 
default www.google.com page).

Which versions of AdThwart, Chrome and Windows/MacOS/Linux?

Chrome 7.0.517.44, Mac OS X 10.6.4, AdThwart 1.0.13

Which filter lists are you subscribed to? Any custom filters?

EasyList and AdThwart Recommended Filters.  Two custom filters:

qux.us###annoying_AdDiv
qux.us##.ad_class

In AdThwart Options, which "General" options are checked?

All four options are checked.

Please provide any additional information below.

Sometimes it'll cause the Chrome script taking too long window to pop up and 
ask if I want to kill it.  I don't have the problem if I disable AdThwart.  I'm 
also using a Gestures extension (Smooth Gestures).

Thanks for the report. This sounds like a Chrome bug, and possibly also some 
weird interaction with the other extension, because no extension should be able 
to hang your browser like that. Unfortunately I've never seen this problem 
myself. Hopefully a future version of Chrome will address such problems.
