    Default Very laggy and slow loading

    I was curious if anyone else has the same problems as I do when loading this messageboard sometimes. It can take 2-3 minutes to load each page sometimes and other times it just flat times out... Has anyone else been having the same problem as me?

    Is Firefox really that good of an internet browser?

    yup its definetly faster then explorer at loading up most stuff, plus it doesnt get spyware hijacked half as easily.

    i havent used explorer for a couple of years now

    Takes about 9 year for pages to load on the odd occasion for me too. I think mark already knows about it and is working on it. It needs sorting tho

    Guess I'll have to give Firefox another try then, I didn't really care for it when I tried it on my old computer... But I guess since I've upgraded to a Pentium D 3.2GHZ with 1GB DDR2 RAM, it should load pretty fast

    I will be keeping an eye on it closely for the next little while

    I did notice logging in took a little while, but pages are loading for me quite quickly.

    Problem should be fixed. If anyone notices things taking a long time, please drop another note, and if possible include the time that it happened.

    Default browsers

    And for the record, it was not anyone specific browser. There are some speed differences between them, but nothing like the lag that was being noticed.

    I dont want to say what it was until I am 100% positive that was it.

    But just for the heck of it, just over 11% of web requests on the site are done using firefox.
