Twitter hangs or crashes, hangs or crashes Firefox 38. The problem seems to be with the script abs.twimg.com. I can sometimes prevent or temporarily stop the hanging by stopping and restarting the script in NoScript.

@Twitter has support for learning how to post pictures, etc. I can find no option for application support. Why does the script crash Firefox, and what can be done to prevent it?
