Should I

What on earth is it?

Why do you use such an ad riddled image hosting site?

It is a lithium battery that has expanded

It is free and easy

And by the way it just popped and a half minute later flared up a bit.

Lithium is flammable

imgur.com and there are others

Why aren't you using Adblock?

Point, but there /are/ better sites out there. If find tinypic takes forever to load and I hate the ads (even though I use adblock). I use

Is that a paid product?

No. It's now properly called Adblock Plus for Firefox (and others I believe). Search for it under Tools / Add-ons.

I don't use Firefox because it is known to have memory leaks.

Might try them, as tinypic does have an annoying trait in asking you every so often to authenticate with completing a time wasting puzzle.

Noted, thanks ;-)

I use Chrome and Adblock Plus.

It's brilliant IMO.

It looks like its *ALREADY* happened.........................

Lithium is metal - but a very reactive metal that gets very lively in contact with water.

Its probably not "flammable" in the same sense as magnesium.

That figures.

Apparently there is one some say is better , uBlock Origin

I took it out of a reader a little bit expanded and left it sitting for a week where it continued to expand.

if anything it's worse.

I'd probably dispose of one that did that, before it decided to go exothermic while I wasn't around to chuck it out the window.

As I said before I burned it to see what happened. (while it was expanding it was kept safely where it would do no damage)
