I have no problems.
Would it make a difference if you re-booth the computer?

Didn't notice the slow as my satellite server was down since Fri sometime so this is my first time online since Fri am.  Was surely having withdrawal symptoms.

Poor Kepy.  In emergencies, usually your local library has free internet.   ;D

Absolutely fine here so not the site.

Worth trying a ping test using ping plotter,the free one works just fine and is easy to use: http://www.pingplotter.com/freeware.html
This will show up any bottle necks including your connection to your isp.

It has been slow for me lately also. I can surf the net fine, but for some reason the forum seems to load slower. Mark

It is slow for me too.  Strange.  Everywhere else is normal.  When I click on something here, it takes 15-30 seconds to load. (Gee, are we spoiled!) But usually it takes 2-3.  I don't know if it is the main server from the site here or what.  It seems like it happened all of a sudden so I don't know. I am sure Steve is aware of it and looking into it.

Still no problems here in the UK.
Ping tests throughout the day have shown a constant round trip time of 100ms, and no losses or bottlenecks.This indicates a relatively fast site with no problems.

I mentioned this a couple of weeks ago....
Every other site in  my browser just pops right up.

Will try some ping tests tonight.

It definitely comes and goes.  When I got on tonight it was slow as molasses.  Then it speeded up to what I would consider normal.  Coming into this thread it slowed down again.  So it is variable within the same visit for whatever that information is worth.
