I noticed that when this happens the computer is trying to load aniview.hs.net or aniview.hs.llnwd.net. Google tells me that this is an ad management website, and that people on other forums are having the same problem with only one website, also using Firefox, so it appears to be related to one of the ads displayed on the Metalwork Forums website.
I have no idea how to fix this without activating an ad blocker, which would prevent me from visiting some of my usual websites. Hopefully someone with some computer expertise will know how to sort this out - meanwhile I will have to use Chrome to visit the metalwork forums.
