Cox forum still having issues.

Im probably one of the few users who use this forum enough (other then moderators ofcourse) to notice this issue, but it seems a couple times a week, forums.cox.com has a odd glitch. You will click on a link on the page, and the page will look like its waiting to load, with a blank screen and hour glass, and will just stay that way. The only way to get the page to load, is to press Esc, or some how stop what ever action the browser is taking. I looked at my D tools and found its waiting for the fallowing javascript to process.  If you would like something specific, please respond with what, and I can gather that data. Its is occuring as I post this, 8:30p EST 2/8/2014.

Also, I have tested this on Chrome 32.0.1700.107 and MSIE 11.0.9600.16476. Running on Windows 7 64bit with AV disabled. The only difference is the page won't load at all on MSIE, so the Esc/Stop work around isn't working, so others may report the page is entirely down.

It now seems to be working normally. 9:09pm EST. I noticed the sites host seems to be having issues. I have a feeling that isn't related though. Any word on what it was? It usually occurs for sometimes 10-15min..sometimes a hour or two. https://status.rackspace.com/

:;Edit:: Now the "kudos" button doesn't work. So maybe work in progress? I will update after a couple days.
