Latest Google Chrome Update on 17th Jan 2014 triggers Page(s) unresponsive alert

My project is built in .net v4.0. Since a Chrome browser update last week, every page triggers a "Page(s) unresponsive" alert. The alert occurs on every page regardless of whether or not the page uses ajax. This can't have just affected my project! Has anyone any advice on how to resolve this issue. ALl other browsers are fine.

A:

The only way round this I believe is to ask clients to install the beta version of Chrome (which includes a fix for this bug). To do this they should select to instal the Beta channel for Windows (or Mac) from here http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel.
My application runs fine again using the beta version.
I suspect the next chrome version will be released soon anyway as this bug is causing widespread problems.
