specific website locks up firefox
This website/webpage completely locks up Firefox, complete hang requiring me to use Task Manager to kill it.

Don't use it then!
It is ok when I visit, but I do have a script blocker. I notice it is trying to run quite a few scripts and it has dynamic content that is possibly eating up some of your bandwidth.
There are many script and ad blockers (hundreds ?) available for Firefox including
- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/extensions/privacy-security/ -> https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/search/?q=block&cat=1%2C0&appver=48.0
- ublock origin https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/

Ah, so that's the reason. Wow, why would they create something that doesn't work?
It may well depend on the speed of your computer and broadband, along with whatever else the computer 7 Firefox is also trying to do at the same time..
No point in creating something that does not work, but they may try to flood you with adverts and popups that earn them money.
