    I'm not seeing any ads. Are you running AdBlock Plus?

    Hi Ron,

    No I am not running ad blockers, I don't mind a few ads - I know they help pay the bills, It's just that lately they seem to go on forever.

    Nothing going on in the background here (I hope) but I am on satellite, which does vary in speed a bit, doesn't seem to slow the ads though.

    Hmm, problem seems to have gone away (someone heard me? )

    When I am on a slow connection (usually at work) the ads sit there for a while as the page loads, so I would say it is your connection or something similar, not the site itself. On my home connection which is half decent, the page loads up the same as it has always done - quite quickly, so I know there is a difference depending on your connection.

    Google 'Internet speed test' and see if you connection is up to scratch.

    Cheers - Gav

    It's going back to what it was a few weeks back, downloading just the ads and then waiting for ages for the page to load, sometimes it won't load, still have the problem with the disappearing cursor and the top half of the text missing when typing a reply to a post, regards frank.

    Glad somebody else has raised this matter. Thought I might have suddenly had problems with my system.

    Just takes for ages to download the next page.

    Seems to have just started. All was OK a few days ago.

    I am in suburbia on a good broadband connection.

    As bacicat says it is most likely my download speed varying as I know it does.
