I have no problem with the speed here at all. High speed internet is only one part of having a fast internet, do you do maintenance on your pc? ..... Try cleaning out your cashe and see if that helps, also do you run spy checks, defrag your hard drive?

 

[CaptEsteban]

All of that is done on a regular basis. Nothing shows up in virus/spyware scans, etc. Of course, I will re-check everything, but this site is the only one I am having problems with. You wouldn't believe the slow response in just getting these typed words to show up.

I will check with site admins, something is causing it. What browser are you using? I really have no problem with the speed here, if site was slow it should be slow for all of us........

Internet Explorer ? was the worst for me

Firefox Still slow but twice as fast as IE

What are you using ?

 

[Silver Searcher]

The only time I have trouble with the speed on here, is if I have sevaral different sites open at the same time, outher wise no problems.

I am using IE8 . Just did some extra scans with zero problems detected. Not running anything extra but e mail program . This is only site that is slow. Internet speed tests are average for what I have. If I find anything , I will post it. Thanks.

maybe your computer is slow, i use this site both on my windows based pc and on my ipad with wi-fi connection. i've never had any problem with this site bieng "slow". it mite just be your computers processor speed.

IE7 and IE8 both have problems with speed on this site. We've tried to fix it, and nothing we do seems to make a dent. It is a problem with IE and it's broken compatability.

The site works great with every other browser... Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera and everything else in between

I agree, maybe too many people are on here at same time? Is on flat sandy soil yet?

I guess that must be what's wrong. It was much faster with the old format. I don't have this problem on any other websites I visit.

Strange how it doesnt affect all users the same, I'm using IE8 ecployer and I have no issues with speed at all...

Extremely slow for me too, and missing part of the page, no adds and a few other things are missing, just blank. Im on the other side of the world, so dont know if the issues are connected. Also a few other sites I cannot log into, hotmail, etc.

Try the alternate skin? See if it's any better... also we do have the mobile device access via our app if you have another device.

The skin john is talking about is found on home page, lower left side. The default skin is the pro, try the other skin, it is close to the old sites look and feel.
