...deviantART.com

They have lotsa great art, pix, walls, etc., but at times when viewing their site my browser goes crazy(keeps refreshing itself as though stuck in a loop)and memory usage shoots up to 350,000k+.

Indeed... I think it has something to do with those annoying ads that interrupt viewing the page and you have to press skip ad.

Have you tried it with other browsers? I suspect the site is to blame but no harm trying Firefox or Chrome.
