google syndication

on the main forum page when it tries to load something from googlesyndication it slows down to a crawl, the page is taking much longer to load that it did a week ago.

What browser are you using? I haven't had the issue but I know some people using IE see it.

I can't really help you then. Unfortunately, IE gets slower with each new version it seems. IE 6 works great. IE 7, not so good. You might be able to get some speed by turning off the phishing filter etc. Otherwise, I think you're kind of stuck with what you have.

Exactly. Considering the issues with IE and Microsoft products in general, going to another browser makes much more sense. Only in my case, I went to an entirely different OS!

Just FYI, I'm running IE 6 and have the same issue with slow loading pages. This site only.

Why you still running that junk browser? Don't you get it?

We keep telling you guys to unhitch the buggy and move into the space age with the rest of us IE is junk and getting worse every time they upgrade it.

Don't be skeered to try Firefox, it is not only a better browser speed wise, it is safer too
