    I don't have trouble using the site but then I haven't been browsing continuously; so wouldn't know of the hiccups. Is it a case of some browsers being tedious than the other. I use IE - it's fab.

    Some people have said that Firefox is finding it harder going than IE?

    I tried it during a particularly bad go slow period, and honesty couldn't see any difference.

    The site is going fast, slow, fast, slow, fairly randomly though, so it's very hard to tell.

    Seemed to be fast when I started typing this, but might not be by the time I've finished. ;)

    It's been slow and erratic for me yesterday and today. A few minutes I pressed the Post Reply button on another thread and it gave a 'followed an inexistent link; if persists report' or some such, don't remember exact words.

    I am using Firefox so will try another browser so as not to deprive people of my posts, though Firfox is working normally for another xite I am on.
    Sorry my posts so long - not time write shorter ones.

    If we're both talking of the same thread, your reply button didn't take you to the thread because it has been deleted.
