    Hi
    I joined the forum a couple of weeks ago and find this site always loads new screens much more slowly than any other I've ever been on! I've got broadband and this site moves more slowly than many dial-up sites used to! Does anyone know why that is and if there is anything I can do my end to speed things up? :confused:

    Mind you, I have to say other than being frustratingly slow it is VERY useful and interesting! :beer:
    One other newbie question, when I first hover my mouse over a thread it displays the beginning of the post, which I try and read as quickly as I can because it disappears in a couple of seconds! :confused: Sometimes I can wiggle my mouse and get it back again... saves waiting to download whole page... i can usually tell if I want to read the post by the first bit! Is there any way to get the into to stay while I keep my mouse still over it??? Sorry if that sounds stupid... I'm trying to cut sown time here... have spent ages just waiting for pages to load to thank people today!
    Nenen :confused:

    Its been slow for me all day too. We're aware of it but really dont know what the problem is. The servers are working fine, the software is working fine.... so why's it slow... that's the big question and the techies are tasked with answering it!
