Why so slow?

I use Mozilla Firefox. No big problems, except the ads take some time to load up.

One trick I've learned though, is that the ads load last. If you watch your status bar, it tells you what's loading. When the ads start loading, just hit stop. The ads will stop loading, but everything else is there.

if you have mozzila you can add on https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865 and resolve that issue

I use IE at home with windows Vista. Right. now I using my I-Phone. The
BB actually now runs as fast on my phone as it does on my computer, which
is pretty slow. At home I have broadband.

AndrewT, I am using IE7, and this page (the "Post Reply" page) took 47 seconds to load. Every other site I go to usually takes 5 to 8 seconds. Even BB used to take less time than it does now. It does NOT seem to be improving as I load additional pages on BB either.

Also, it looks like it is loading ads BEHIND the threads. At hte top of this "Reply to Thread" bos is a small strip of an add, that (if I move my pointer over it) refers to a "googleads.g.doubleclick.net/...." that I do not want to try to click to see what it takes me to.

Hope you can get this corrected soon!

P.S. When I loaded the Smilies window to select this smilie, THAT window took 10 seconds to load! It used to load in about 2 seconds!

I am using IE. It just took about a minute (which is an eternity these days on a computer) to get to the post reply box. It sure is causing me to spew my venom elsewhere which may make some of you very happy:thumbs:
Beenn on this board for 8-9 years now anf this is the first time I had any complaints like this.

Thank you, sir, for your untiring efforts to make the site work. Just moments ago, I came on with no problems and I am moving about freely,

Cheers,

Jim

PS. It is so much easier to complain than to correct.

Navigating at a pretty good speed, but one little problem has cropped up again.

When I open a new page, either directly or in a new window, it comes up with Andrews message, saying "Greetings unregistered." That's even though I have signed in already. I sign in on the new page and move on.

It doesn't happen all the time, but it happened this time.

Oops, I just tried to submit this post, and it came up with the message, "you are not logged in....(etc.).

It's now a couple of minutes later. I logged in and my post goes through. I wanted to add this info and the dialog box now asks me the reason for editing. So I typed in the reason.

This is a pleasure -- the site seems to be normal now, and not like molasses!

Thanks, Andrew T.!
