I find this website to be extremely slow-loading the last couple of days. Anyone else having this problem?

**Cynthia** · 21st April 11, 02:35 PM

No, it's been loading just fine for me... I'm using Windows 7 with Firefox, and it's been fine when I've checked on my iPhone 3GS.

Hope it speeds up for you soon

Why wonder? Clock yourself.

Quick enough on a library PC...

If your internet bandwidth is up to spec, you might want to restart your browser and/or restart your PC. Good luck. Let us know how it goes.

WinXP and Win7 no issues using IE or FF. Pretty snappy on Droid 3G as well. Could be a local issue. Know there were some issues across the internet today for some of the key "traffic interchange" points.

Have you upgraded to IE9? Quite the improvement overall!

Once I get a connection to the internet, this site loads at its normal rate. But then, I have dial-up at home, with 33.6 Kbps being a good connection.

(Work connection, when I have time to surf, is a T1 line

)

IE9 is wonderful. From a tech stand point I'm thrilled with its security improvements. If you or your company are reluctant IE8 is not bad either on Win7.

Just a little observation here. But a recent virus put break at my office was confined almost exclusively to FF users. Not implying anything, just thinking while posting...

I find IE9 quirky and random and hate it like poison.

If I have two tabs open and then open a third and select a favourite it will default to first tab and change that, leaving the new tab alone.

When I click on favourites the drop down menu is blank. I have to re-click to close it then re-click again and then they are all there.

I don't think changing the layout left to right is an improvement; IE9 freezes up just as much as IE8 used to do. Maybe the security is vastly improved - I don't know. I have Norton installed and have never had security problems

Thank goodness, I have FireFox on my laptop.
