Safari 3.1.2 won't load certain pages all the way with JavaScript enabled

Question

I have trouble even loading pages on Apple's site when I have JavaScript enabled. Pages get partly or nearly loaded and then hang and eventually time out with "server stopped responding" issues. Turn it off then pages load fine, but of course I can't access any functions that require JavaScript such as the Discussions login link. Firefox works fine. Many other sites using JavaScript have similar problems. I've tried all the usual stuff like resetting Safari, trashing preferences, repairing disk permissions, etc. Any other suggestions?
Thanks.

I'm having the same problems as described above (Intel iMac 2.4 GHz, Safari 3.1.2).
I can see the pages linked above, but I'm having trouble seeing the following New Zealand quiz:

It's not the "noscript" tags that stop it. It's something in the following section of header code (stars are mine, replacing information you don't need to know for this):
<script type="text/javascript"><!--//--><![CDATA[//><!--
var cm_role = "live";
var cm_host = "angelfire.lycos.com";
var cm_taxid = "/memberembedded";
var angelfiremembername = "************";
var angelfirememberpage = "*************/*************.html";
var angelfireratingshash = "************";
var lycosadcategory = null;
var lycosad_remoteaddr = "*.***.***.*";
var lycosad_wwwserver = "www.angelfire.lycos.com";
var lycosad_tracksmall = "http://www.angelfire.com/doc/images/track/ot_smallframe.gif?rand=************";
var lycosad_trackserved = "http://www.angelfire.com/doc/images/track/ot_adserved.gif?rand=************";
//--><!]]></script>
I've tried executing Angelfire pages without this code, and they load up as you would expect them to in Safari, but without the Angelfire inserts (required to use their free service).
The testing I've done suggests that it is something to do with this particular line:
var cm_taxid = "/memberembedded";
