Not in my case, adblock on with firefox, and all the ad's load fine with IE6. It dosn't seem to matter what time of the day either. Getting to the point that I almost hate coming to the site....but I just can't quite stay away :-)

Even posting this reply, it locks up and I have to cut and paste what I wrote, refresh the page and do it again.

OK, 3rd try now.....

I wish I knew how to do that. I run Vista so any pointers would be much appreciated. If this carries on I will just have to stop comming here.

I to run Vista on a quad core super fast PC with fast broadband. I use many other sites with no problems but this site is slow. I tend to try and use the site when its quiter and things speed up a bit.

I have had problems for a long time now. I surf many sites and from many locations and this one is ALWAYS slow as heck. I'd spend a lot more time on the site if it wasn't so darn slow. It's Slow in IE, FireFox and Safari. I hope you folks are not on shared hosting... Maybe a database performance issue?

I too have the issue with both firefox and IE as of the last month or so. Also since then, if I close the browser and come back I am not still logged in even though the save as cookie is checked. Some settings were changed recently to cause issues. Not a computer guru so I hope someone can come up with an answer. Thanks.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. This site is slow. It is better with Firefox, but still is slow. But I can live with it. It isn't unbearable.

Ditto, this is the SLOWEST site I've ever visited, regardless of the browser I've used. I think they need a new programming staff. If this was eBay or amazon, they'd be out of biz long ago with all the issues I've seen in just the realitively short time I've been here.
