| 544953 | 2007-04-28 07:44:00 | IMO Opera has been running like a dog since I did the update a few weeks ago and got the new version. A very un-scientific opinion I hasten to add! ;) Keep on getting a message to the effect of a URL can't be found when I select it from Bookmarks, but when I push Enter the page pops up. Will look at going back to IE7. Despite what some here say, I can't see anything wrong with it. Opera was an experiment, which I just stuck with. |

| 544954 | 2007-04-28 07:50:00 | The site has slowed down since, you guessed it, the advent of the avatars. To me it was more since/just after PC World moved offices that PressF1 slowed down (&/or after the domain name stuff up) (I am on Broadband Xtra Go Large) |

| 544956 | 2007-04-28 08:45:00 | Hi Speedy-I had better be quick about this. I sem to recall I had adblock at one point which caused problems loading pages or websites -might be worth having a look at deleting it to see if it solves the problem. Doesn't appear likely though but worth a try. I think from memory if it's active any website that has any sort of adds will have a problem loading. Regards Gordon. |

| 544957 | 2007-04-28 09:49:00 | Hi Speedy Yes, at times, over the past 7/10 days, PressF1 downloads very slowly but Consumer Magazine even worse. Seems to be the NZ websites !! Misty :stare: |

| 544958 | 2007-04-28 09:51:00 | I use FeedDemon for reading the forum pages (which has an IE-based browser built in), but for my default browser use Opera 9.2 (Speed Dial :thumbs: ) which I use to view responses to threads I have 'subscribed' to (clicking the link in the email notification). Being on Woosh, it's a bit like dial-up when it comes to speed, but I can't say I have noticed the pages loading any slower in Opera lately (or faster with the IE-based FeedDemon browser either).... I did have a glitch the other day when posting a response - but can't remember which browser I was using, but I put it down to editing the post too close to the end time... |

| 544959 | 2007-04-28 10:19:00 | I am running FF 2.0.0.3 and there has been no issues at all, but then I did change a few settings to speed up loading times :nerd: | The_End_Of_Reality (334) | ||
| 544960 | 2007-04-28 10:31:00 | Well I WAS using IE until I found it didnt ask for a username/pw on every site including this lol. (But did on some). So, decided to install FF again. I cant be stuffed typing my username/pw in here everytime I come back. |

| 544961 | 2007-04-28 10:36:00 | I use opera 9.2 on vista and it hasn't crashed, and I dont expect it too. IE is crap and FF is crap cleaner (ie toilet paper). |
