FWIW, that loads without crashing with Firefox 1.5.0.0 on WinXP (I'm
at work right now, where all the Linux I have is text-only). I see a
bunch of triangles in a row, each at a different rotation angle. It
looks like an animated GIF that got "unwound" somehow.

Bugzilla is good. There is also "Help -> Report Broken Web Site".
It's currently aimed at reporting sites that render or operate
incorrectly due to bad site design, but there is an "Other" option. A
"Hangs/crashes Firefox" option would be useful as well, methinks.
Maybe I should open a Bugzilla ticket on that. ;-)
