I noticed the same here, thought it was just my end, everything checks out, I have wireless internet thru Hughes. I had dial up before that, I'm used to slow speeds.

Just checked,......

"Active Users: There are 480 members and 1855 guests."

Those numbers will tax any server. Donations to this site are neededfrom more members.

This forum blazes for me. Just a click a link, bam its open right away.

The number one thing to improve speed is to dump Internet Exploder and start using Firefox or Slimbrowser.
