Default Screen blacks out after opening web page

My screen blacks out after opening a certain webpage. All
other webpages display fine. Does anyone know what might
be causing this? After screen blacks out it won't come
back until I restart my system (Windows ME).

Thanks for biting, Rick. The webpage I'm referring to is

a Japanese site for sewing fabrics (http://rickrack.jp/).
My wife, who is Japanese, and I live in Japan and our
computer at home is a Japanese system Windows Me. My
computer at work, a Japanese Windows 2000 Professional has
no problem displaying the site but whenever we try to
enter the site with my wife's computer it goes black. We
can access the splash page but when we press enter to go
into the site the screen goes black. Since my wife
doesn't know a lot about computers, I've been trying to
find an answer through various English sites. I told her
not to access the site anymore and the computer's been
fine. It works on every other site she visits. I'm just
curious as to know what the site could contain that would
make our screen black out. If you have any ideas I'd be
glad to hear them. Thanks.

No idea...., I'm guessing a problem with either Javascript or CSS
stylesheets.

If you can turn off Javascript in InternetOptions you can check on that.
I think there's a stylesheet toggle in there somewhere, too.
