Is it me...or is the site running painfully slowly again?

[LackaDAISYcal]

threads are taking an age to load and I think it's the ads causing problems as I keep getting "internet explorer cannot display the web page" in the wee add boxes.

My typing is also appearing in the box very slowly.....tis like watching a ghost writer in action!

Is it just me?

what is that weird new explorer box at top and bottom too

Flashy cursor has stopped and my computer is no longer whirring like a crazy thing.

Oh tell a lie. It started again as soon as I posted.

tis slow for me.....and all the ads keep coming up with 'cannot display webpage'.

I'm getting the same message as Threadie:

Waiting for eas.apm.emediate.eas.cu+9714;cre=mu;target=<span class="underline">blank;isensereferer=http//eas.apm.emediate.eu/ea s?cu= followed by some numbers.

No underlining in the message though. Not sure where that's come from.

I'm having trouble with the back button, takes 4 clicks to go back, no problem on other sites

Internet Explorer cannot display ads.

Page pretends to load then stays blank and have to refresh.

ARGGGHHHH

Not quite so slow now.

I'm getting the same message as coppertop. The message box isn't showing the letters as soon as I type - it's a few seconds behind

aww meghalegs thanks
I nearly threw the pc out of the window

I'm about to give up and find another site. It's taking me 3 or 4 presses of the back button to get back to the list of threads, and it's infuriating. Please, please, please can we pay a fee and not have ads?

Me too.

Ads are not loading - coming up as 'internet explorer cannot display the page' in the space where they should be. Slow to load as well, and 'back' button not working at all.

Virgin cable broadband, and windows vista on pc.

Have MNHQ not seen this yet?

I am also getting the same message as Coppertop but it's coming up as a security warning which I never like!

Yes! Me too...

are you all on iternet explorer.
I have now opened firefox and it is ok.

thanks 2 shoes that worked!

Mine seems fine just now, i've not changed anything though.

I am so pleased you posted this as it ha sbeen painfully slow for me today too. Tis very annoying.

Oh yes and the back button thing too. Have to press it a few times to get back.

Yes, I was trying to post a new thread in chat and lost it.

Its terrible today, keeps bringing up page not available when I try and get into threads. All other sites ok

mine's same as threadiekrugers - using IE 7.

tres annoying

I'm on Firefox and it has been generally ok but I am finding the occasional thread slow to load.

things seem to have improved a wee bit.....and that message about the emediate page has gone.

Is it one particular ad that's causing it?
