Is an ad on anandtech homepage causing your ms java script to fail, too?

This morning one of the ads seems to try to run a .jsp file that just hangs my IE up. No other websites seem to do it. I even ran over to my work homepage and logged in to test java script there but it works fine, too. I am using only the ms version of javascript. Perhaps thats a problem?
 
After the ad changed the problem went away. Must be just some particular ad written for sun java only.
 
Yea It is a ZIPzoomfly banner ad that is causing it. Still happening today. I had to drop Anandtech as my start page because it was so bad.
 
This has been happening to me as well. The thing is, it will eventually unlock and throw up an eror for me. after the error I can browse like normal. I have the SUN JAVA runtime installed instead of just the JAVA VM and it seems to do this whenever I come to this site or to weather.com but it's only been these 2 sites... If you have any ideas to stop this I'd appreciate it.
 
Post here if you still see long load times as its very very fast here. It was an issue in the ad code for zipzoomfly, which is being rectified as we speak.
