Thanks to the Mods!! Just posting that yesterday took 3 hours! No stretch of any imagination!! And after it posted, I was stuck and no amount of shutting down and logging back in etc. helped....

Seems to be normal now tho'! So thanks again!!

I know I've seen (and experienced) more duplicated posts then I ever remember!
I can't even open half the threads!!
I've dumped the cache, cleaned the cookies changed my home page, walked the dog, drank a beer and it only times out!
This is getting sickening!

I only spend a very few minutes on here each day because you can get through all the new threads or posts in just a few minutes, then you're done. There is just an insufficient amount of traffic on this site to keep you here for any length of time. Other sites, such as the HAMB can keep you going indefinitely with new stuff to read.

They have a lot of traffic for sure. Definitely a different attitude over there though........................

I don't have time to read that many posts usually... And the attitude I can surely do without! Nope, this is home for me.. like an old pair of sneakers, they just fit!

Dunno about you guys,,but I'm having similar problems,,again.. Sometimes I can get onto a page,,other times I can't.. sometimes I hit the''reply with quote'' button,,and it won't answer.. Been through this puter,and no probs anywhere else,, Right now it's behaving again,,but later tonight will probably be a different story..

Mine has been okay... seems a tad slower loading pages.. but not hanging up..

Weird...Working okay,,unless I want to ''reply with quote'' still....It is still quicker than it was,but still seems to be playing silly buggers on a few issues..It's the only site that has some glitches..Every other site I visit is fine..Oh,well..

Just part of "our quirky charm" right?? LOL..

Well,,got on here this morning,,and now,I can't post any of those little smilies to any posts,,when I put my cursor on the ''TOP'' box at the bottom of the page,another large box opens up,and displays options,,but,,,I can now hit the ''reply with quote'' button,,and that pops up almost immediately,,instead of thinking about it for three minutes,and then telling me that the page is not available......PLUS...this morning,,I only have the narrow page available,,,,if I click on the arrow to make the page wider,,the page comes up and tells me that I am using someone elses account,and to sod off...,So,,I hit the home button,,and it reverts back to narrow page format again.. I have just logged into google chrome to do this edit,,and it's no better on here.. Getting a bit annoyed....ggrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

I'm in a crappy hotel on their slow wifi and it's working ok over here. Did you clear your cookies and buffers etc.?

There is a nasty malware going around called conduit and it will hijack your browser and send you to all kind of weird places. I downloaded Spy Hunter and it took care of it and a bunch of other junk. That could be your problem. And no, I'm not endorsing Spy Hunter, it's just what I used.

Yeah,guys,,checked everything out,,i think..Lynda does all that stuff on here..I still get sawdust in the keyboard when I log on..

Sorry Lammy! Maybe Mr. Bill will see this and offer his assistance??

Want me to PM him for you?

34,,It might pay to contact him.. I will see what happens today,,cos sometimes things change overnight,,for some reason,,can't understand why,,so I might wait and see.. A bit grumpy,,cos I can't do what I usually do.. bahhhh..

Conduit has taken over one of my browsing windows but I just go back to my Google homepage when I want to browse anything. I must say that this Forum has been friendlier and better than ever before since they worked on it the last time. ?so far? I can always get in and post.
