Hey... I'm still hear reading this...
Problem is, mine loads just fine but I'm using FireFox. Gave up on IE a few years ago and from what I understand IE9 has bugs* and is slow loading.
*IB has errors, IE won't allow errors, or at least balks, by design.
The powers that be know about the site issues a few days ago but all that have been fixed. If you are having issues with the site being slow, look within. It's not the site server speed.

In my opinion, it's not the server speed per se, so much
as it is the errors in programing that effect the speed. IE, by
design, is intolerant of program errors and balks at loading, that's
why other browsers that are more tolerant and willing to let errors
pass are not affected as bad. The solution the way I see it would
be to write better programs. Less errors = faster, or in some cases,
doing anything at all. jmo

One of the things I do when using FireFox is to use an add on called Ghostery. It will see all extra the embedded cookies that may slow a browser. Doubtful that IE has this capability or add on feature available.
I see six HDF site cookies loading. There are two you need for proper screen viewing and the rest are not necessary. I guess that's what speeds up my browser and of course the fact that my download speed is 25m with an upload of 10m.
As far as the site software... we are at the mercy of VBB and their updates.

My MAIN problem with this site. Hell, I Just had to back out and come back in because some stupid *** M@M add was blocking where I needed to click to get into the forums. It's just freaking ridiculous how the adds block everything. I can't scroll anywhere without a stupid mother FU*CKING add popping up. I know this site is here to make money but the adds need to stop somewhere. And yes, I have firefox with every single add popper blocker whatever turned on.

Then you have a malware on your computer. If you and I have the same thing and I am here 17 hours a day then the difference is the computer.
Go to www.download.com
Look up, download the free version and run Malwarebytes. Do a full scan. It will take a while but it should find your malware issue and allow you to delete it.

We'll do everything we can to get you through this. Step by step.
Next is to go to the same site. Search for Glary Utilities. Download the free version. Install it and run a scan (Center Tab) to fix up your registry that may have been affected by the now deleted malware by hitting the repair button after the scan.
Caution. Do not run this program often. Only when necessary.
