Or is it just me? I know I live in the UK, but I have an 8meg broadband connection and the pages on this site take ages to load up whatever time of day it is. If I look at posts and then want to go back a page it is quicker for me to actually refresh and go back to the main page. This is the only site I get problems with. Maybe there is a load of hair balls stuck in the wires somewhere
Or maybe its just a busy site.

Nope, I have no problems. I have ultra lite high speed which is the slowest one, and my pages still load pretty much instantaneously.

Or done a spyware scan? One time my computer was running awful, and it was full of spyware. Once I did a scan it was zippy as per normal.

Yep Yep Yep to all of those, im pretty clued up with computers I spent 5 years building them and upgrading them. I think its just one of those things in life you gotta put up with, like I said im in the UK, and I suppose it depends how many servers I have to go through before it reaches the main site.Oh well not to worry.
cheers guys

I have problems sometimes - just occasionally it times out before the page downloads. Mind you we do download all our TV from the internet so any webpages we download are competing with those

I have that problem sometimes but I always just blame it on wireless internet
Living out in the country having wireless internet doesn't work so well.

At least im not alone then
Oh well I suppose there are more pressing issues in the world than having to wait a couple of extra seconds

Its like I have always said.

Computers are not clever.
They just think they are.
