 Too often I surf into an OLPC wiki page that freezes or crashes Browse or
 Firefox on my XO, usually because the page tries to display megabyte
 images.  If Browse or Firefox cannot be made immune to toxic pages, then
 we need to aggressively find and fix the toxic wiki pages.

 To this end, I have made it easier for users to list toxic pages, by
 entering links onto this new wiki page:

 http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Toxic_wiki_pages

 And if anyone wants something to do, please check the list and fix
 whatever you can.  You probably can't fix toxic wiki pages from an XO; you
 will need a more powerful computer.

 Any toxic pages on the list can be used for stress-testing XO Browse and
 Firefox.
