    Hi,

    For a few days now, I have found the site to be running very slowly indeed if you have several tabs open in Firefox with different forums displayed (as I always used to do). Gets quicker as tabs are reduced. Seems to be something on each header page of a forum that is sapping resources?

    I am running Vista with latest SPs, Firefox 3.5, and my speedtest result was 6.5Mbps just before I logged onto the site.

    Regards,

    White.

    Not sure if this is the right place to post but......the site is showing only me logged in?:confused: My pm's are going a bit bonkers too. I have a pop-up showing that I have received one but it's not in my inbox. One I read earlier is still showing as unread? Also showing that last post was 3.20.

    It's not just you.

    I've tried quoting you but it's not appearing in the box as I type this.

    I started a thread on this but it seems to have disappeared.

    Clicking the new posts button only shows posts from 3.24. PM's have vanished. New posts not being shown unless clicking on threads. It's all gone a bit pear shaped. :)

    And our thanks have disappeared. Load or corruption?

    For a few days now when I click on a thread a page opens up with all the headers and normal page stuff but without the thread itself then it seems to have a second thought and refreshes and the thread appears.
