Default Installed Firefox and forum still slow

I just finished installing FireFox along with and Ad Blocker and this forum is still slow. I do notice that with Firefox, in the bottom left corner every time I surf on this site I see "connecting to static.ibsrv.net..." before it finally loads the page.

Anyone know what this is?

It's one of our our servers.

Get the add on called Ghostery. It will speed up your firefox. You must go through the set up process, select all to be blocked and hit save. If not, Ghostery will not work.

The forum is a bit slow again today. Also, Ghostery can be a problem if you use it to stop cookies and data mining on everything that pops up. It can, in some instances keep you from getting on a site you want to get on. I have and like FF.
