Interesting that it crashes, this uses nothing but normal html & css for the actual rendering. I have noticed that on machines with slower graphics hardware, there are a lot of glitches (I think it has to do with low VRAM, but not entirely sure).

While this website still works fine, the actual HTML that Frontpage generated isn't exactly easy to maintain if Frontpage stops working for whatever reason.

The author of this website is basically stuck using whatever version of Frontpage supports the markup of his website.

Interestingly, as someone (I'm white) who has moved to Finland for an exchange, I haven't noticed this at all. Of course it's very possible that this is because I'm white and don't speak Finnish, but it's still weird to hear this about the country I'm currently in.
