| 741601 | 2009-02-04 00:57:00 | Most of the issues with the PressF1 pages are caused by slow adservers (hence timeout messages on T/C). Disable javascript (which prevents fetching most of the remote ads) and/or block the evil servers and suddenly things are a hell of a lot faster... | Erayd (23) | ||
| 741602 | 2009-02-04 01:03:00 | |inl.adbureau.net and |adserver.adtech.de are the two ad things i block using adblock plus in FF, it's a lot faster now | GameJunkie (72) | ||

With javascript disabled it makes a huge difference, loads in a split second. You will need to remember to turn it back on again though as so many sites need javascript and are unusable without it. |

The javascript disable option is on the "Scripting" tab. I don't like Opera but might just use it for PF1 with javascript disabled. |

| 741608 | 2009-03-02 22:11:00 | That "adserver" site seems to be the one holding me up. Has FFox already got an ad-blocker built in or do I have to get something else from somewhere - if so where? I'm using FF 3.0.6 with Vista Ultimate SP1 |
