• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I have bad lags / freezes when using firefox, and to a lesser extent safari whilst rending or ram-previewing in AE. For example I had to type this post in text edit and paste it in as I will get the coloured wheel for a sec every few characters trying to type.

Had this ever since getting this computer, 2 x 3 GHz Quad-Core intel Xeon, 7 GB Ram, Tiger

cheers

In the Memory and Cache preferences pane in adobe after effects, try reducing the size of the RAM cache, it is possible that After Effects is gobbling up all of your RAM, making other programs run slower. Also, if you have the multiprocessing option enabled in the After Effects pane, try disabling it. Is this CS3 or an earlier version? If it is an earlier version, is it running through Rosetta? Because that could also be a problem.
