Long waiting times?

#1 Post by Anoohilator »

Is it just me or do pages seem to take really long to load sometimes? Do you think it has anything to do with the new sidebar or some troublesome ads?

It's not just you. Happens to me whenever I use IE, even on my premium account. But, I don't get the lag at all when I use Firefox. Go Firefox!

I'm using Mozilla, and it's right for me.

Although for some reason, PPT is laggy. <__<

Neo's loading pretty fast for me. I use IE.

Although like Olivia, PPT's loading awfully slow (and now I wonder whether the server switch did anything much...).

Neo's good for me. I'm using Mozilla. And jumping on the bandwagon, like Yoshi and Olivia, PPT's slooooooow.

PPT is great for me, faster than usual. But NEo is deathly slow.

Neo's been being slow for me lately too (yes I'm using Firefox, and am also on DSL, so no excusses). Everytime I have to look down to see what's loading it is ALWAYS from an ad site! I'm now blocking any ad site that takes more than 2seconds to load (insanely long on my computer); hopefully that will work.

Yeah, I see that every time, too. Even though I'm using Firefox, and have all the ads blocked. :roll:

I think the main culprit is web.adknowledge.com...

This is the only site I have time to notice cos my page hasn't loaded yet...
