----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 When trying to write a new post the browser (Firefox in my case) throws an
 Unresponsive Script Error.  I believe it to be due to custom fields.  I
 have to click the Stop Script button in order to see what the fields are.
 I looked at mine and there appears to be many duplicates.  Several of the
 custom fields seem to have 4 copies of each.

 I don't know the exact cause, or a fix, but this always happens when
 trying to write a new post regardless of the browser.  I tried to delete
 the duplicate custom fields but it doesn't work, perhaps because of
 stopping the script.

 This prevents me from writing new posts.
