Also when he goes to google chrome, he should go to "apps" on the bottom of the page and type in Adblock. Download it. I just did the adblock thing because the adds here are getting insane. Could not even move my curser over some of the adds without it popping up and blocking the whole page.

I mean I would try to move my curser to the scroll bar on the right side or move it back from the scroll bar and boom!!!!

I guess I am not alone. This site is painful to deal with. Tried to post a reply twice and no luck. May check Chrome out and see if that helps.

Man do the Chrome. Its eleventy billion times better now. I stay on here most all day here and there while Im at work and the last couple of days I was having to resort to taking naps instead of surfing HDF. With the Chrome Im back at it!! Couldnt figure out the Adblock thing though.

How do you go to google chrome?

I am running Google Chrome, also have Firefox and its slow in both of them. Whats weird is it not all the time. like 50% of the time.

Same here problem here. I can type in some answers and then wait 2-3 seconds for the words to appear on the screen..]

And yes I have cleared out my History and all the temp files and I am running ADblock and it still it SLOW..

WHATS UP..

And Yes This is the only site I am having a problem with. and I running the premium high speed Comcast connection and Its running at 24.6 Mbps download and 6.4 Mbps upload so it and because I have a slow speed connection.

Another check is My CPU usage is staying around 10%.

UPDATE-----------------[


I just reloaded the ADBlocker Plus and even though I had it before and even had the little red stop sign in the bar above it must have not been working right..

I un-installed it and re-loaded it.. then re booted the puter, and whamoo..

Now all the ads that was coming up before are now gone.. And this forum is running better again..

So if Ur running Ad blocker Plus and still getting all the ads, U might try to

re-install it and see what happens.

Another Update,,

all the ads are gone but when when I go to the (Go Advance) box below and inter pics the words come up real slow when typing most of the time..

So I've done about all I know to do to help this, but nothing seems to help....

the forum seems normal if I just answer in the regular way, just don't go into the advance area because its slow most of the time.

Any one else having this issue
