  • For me i have been using firefox to access this site for a while and it went at normal speed but as of last week it has crashed every time i visited the site. So i started using internet explorer. that was slightly better but still crashed on occasions. Right now i just downloaded google chrome and it loads the pages really fast. maybe you guys could try using it for a couple of days and see if it makes any improvements.

    It sounds like you never do any housekeeping on your PC! Try using ccleaner here.

    Everything seems much faster now.

    But I'm getting the "glitch" error message more frequently than I used to. :confused:
    APOLOGIES!

    The MoneySavingExpert.com forums database has a minor glitch. This should rectify itself quite quickly. Usually waiting 30 seconds and refreshing will have it working fine. We are currently working on a long term solution that should make the forums more stable.
    Still a lot better than it was though. :)
