Forum speed/ Google Chrome!
OK, I like others was having a problem with very slow and erratic operation of this website with IE, and Mozilla Firefox....
I just downloaded Google Chrome,, and man. It works great! Much smoother and less erratic! I mean, when I used to type, it would actually be two or three words behind on the screen! It scrolled terribly slow and jerky.
THIS BROWSER ROCKS!

I just started trying out Chrome and it's been hit or miss with some sites. I don't think all sites are supporting it yet or it just doesn't know how to display some sites. Other than that, the ones that do work are pretty quick to load.

I don't have any complaints about Firefox on any other sites,, except this one it is slower than heck,,, so if I have difficulty with GC on any other site, no problem, Hell if I JUST use it here I am thrilled! (on my laptop anyway,, my desktop works at home fine with FF)
Just wanted to help if I could!

Just make sure you Clear your History every few days. If not it Will steal and fill up all your Virtual Memory real fast .
Google is a Hog of a Tracker and loves to store crap and it stores it on your HHD.
I use it for my E-bay and Forums I keep open all the Time , I use FireFox for my web-site/ FaceBook & TWitter and then use a MSN one for all my E-mail accounts. So i have Normally 3 browsers with w a total of about 11 Tabs running all the Time with no issues.

I have no idea , they just like to track and save crap. I know it helps reload the pages faster but I had like 4 or 5 gb of crap as I run a very Thin C drive and couldn't tell what was hogging it down. now that i know I just delete every few days. I like that Firefox does all that for you when you shut it down.

I was going to ask the question below but then realized I have Chrome on this PC and could see all the ad's with it.
What about all the ad's. Firefox + Ad Block Plus eliminates them. Does Google Chrome?
Will Ad Block work with Chrome?
Also, for whatever reason, Chrome is much slower on my system than Firefox using this forum. I hear people complaining about the speed of this forum all the time but I rarely have an issue and I'm just using standard cable internet. Nothing super fast.
Kinda makes me wonder why ...
