Slooooow as hell???

what's the deal? What has changed? The forum has been slow since it was sold but this last week it has been almost unusable. It takes like 20 seconds to initially respond.

The Internet Explorer v7 Phishing Filter is sluggish ... like a wet sponge (almost like a Corvette )

I noticed better forum response times by turning off the phishing filter (and also by blocking the google ads).

Tools->Phishing Filter.

This advice is worth what you paid for it.

Another reason to make the turtle from the 'pet thread' the forum mascot.

Well, on a brighter note I seem to be being charged with the "quantity discount" rate at the local pub. Drank at least $40 of drinks and was only charged $14. I left a $16 tip. Nice girls there. I'm going back later when the blues band starts up - if I can still walk.......
