eBay strangeness

Yeah, an unbuilt kit 4K memory board. Which is kind of neat, but it follows
in the footsteps of all the bizarre bare unpopulated Altair circuit boards
that have been on eBay lately.

Did you notice the PET that STARTS at $575?!?

Am wondering if it is me or if everyone is experiencing this?

Someone has listed an Altair 4k memory board. The
eBay item number is 34468468. Whenever I go to this
listing, my computer locks up. It has happened every
time I have tried since earlier in the day. Only happens
with this listing and no others.
It seems to happen as soon as eBay starts to download the
photo from the seller's web site. I have never experienced
this with any other eBay auction.
