In FireFox, if I read a review and then press the Back button, ff tells me it's connecting to Twitter, and then, after a tiny delay, displays the page I was expecting.
Obviously this is no bigee.

I have Firefox also and have been experiencing some delays at the site, with Firefox showing "connecting to Twitter". Mine are for any page.

In this thread about TSA Twitter account :

Gizmo has mentioned that: "I believe I've found a way to automatically post our site RSS feed into our Twitter account"

I think it might have to do something with that. I am not sure though, but that's what it seems to me.

Browsing and also CMS page edits are being jammed up by a faulty script on our pages (a web bug) introduced along with the twitter link. You can see the JavaScript for it in our page code.

It needs to be removed, it's absolutely not wanted whether it works or not, it's generating a warning if you have detection on for those kinds of things (like the Ghostery Ffx plugin and perhaps even on IE7 onward).

I removed the Twitter javascript link. Should be ok now.
