| 534165 | 2007-03-19 04:58:00 | Yep, the forum often drags its heels fairly regularly. I get the same as MAC_H8ER - ad.doubleclick.net is normally the culprit. | FoxyMX (5) | ||
| 534166 | 2007-03-19 05:06:00 | Put ad.doubleclick.net in your hosts file - upload a blank page somewhere else and enter its IP as the entry. I redirected apple.co.nz to microsoft.co.nz using this technique. ;) | pcuser42 (130) | ||
| 534167 | 2007-03-19 05:19:00 | Put ad.doubleclick.net in your hosts file - Already is and has been for a long time. Makes no difference. |

| 534168 | 2007-03-19 08:38:00 | Put ad.doubleclick.net in your hosts file - upload a blank page somewhere else and enter its IP as the entry.That doesn't make sense. You mean browse to a blank page somewhere right? How many of those lying around, unless you do in fact mean uploading a blank file to your own server. | Greg (193) | ||
| 534169 | 2007-03-19 08:46:00 | As an experiment can someone who gets this "lag" install Proximiton, let it block all the fluff content and then report back if the forum is now snappy? Remember that promitron is tiny,makes no registry entires, doesn't need installing in the traditional windows fashion and alters nothing on your PC, plus its default setup should be more then enough for the test. Anyone? Foxy, Im looking directly at you. Now Im winking Now Ive tilted my head slightly foward, Rubbing my chin in a manly fashion. Whoops, Splipped, finger right up the nostril, But hey, whats this, and there, Just a little futher up........ |

I think some of you people are so paranoid about blocking everything you can by using all sorts of programs and other tricks that you are actually causing complications on your computer and slowing it down and probably causing some web sites to not load at all. Mind you I don't have the added complication of running firewalls, antivirus, and spyware programs and the like which can also cause compatibility problems with blocking programs that might be installed. |

| 534171 | 2007-03-19 09:28:00 | Thanks for the assumptions. Brilliant work. Thanks again. Top stuff. The world is now a better place. Wait, My mistake, They were worthless. Never mind. |

| 534172 | 2007-03-19 09:37:00 | Your spelling has improved remarkably Metla, well done. You must be doing more reading instead of playing with car racing games. |
Safari (3993) | ||
| 534173 | 2007-03-19 09:41:00 | Another assumption, Firefox has a spell checker.:D Perhaps you could venture over to the Trademe forum and offer to do "readings" for people like the other flakes. |

| 534174 | 2007-03-19 10:00:00 | I was going to say something short and sharp... but it's just not worth it for idiots. Go Metla :thumbs: |
