Default Blazer Forum Loading?

I don not know if it is the computers I use to look on this site but it seems to take a long time to load up. Does anyone else seem to have this issue?

It's hit and miss. A lot of members (including myself) have the same issue from time to time. It comes and goes...usually doesn't last that long either.

Use the 'disk clean-up' function or a better program like 'C-Cleaner' if you have one to remove the garbage in the cache and see what happens.

I find that to an extent it may be you're ISP. Sometimes you can get shunted to a slower or malfunction modem in there stack and life sucks. I have also found that stopping and "refreshing" or re-sending can get the speed back to normal.

I'd do a virus/maleware/spyware.... scan just to check

Defrag, CCleaner, clear browsing history, cache, cookies...

If it's still slow try a new browser, I use Firefox

And if it still going on contract your ISP

Seems that there is a problem with IE and how it handles the loading of the ads... I can't stand using IE on the forum.

I use Chrome at home...it's pretty quick. It's slow at times though. I know it's not my ISP either...
I do do cleanups every once and a while, but it doesn't seem to help. As I said though it's not a big issue...its hit and miss. sometimes it's really bad, other times not.
