Anyone getting stuck in cyberspace

I seem to be having a bit of a problem with the pages taking ages to load or freezing before they load, leaving me with a grey page, meaning I can't read messages. I have broadband and don't have a problem with any other site. Any suggestions?

I've been having problems on my broadband connection too, as has tangy IIRC.

Yes, I've been having exactly the same problems for a month or so! I didn't want to say anything though, assuming that it was just my computer being slow. However on a recent visit to the library I had the same problem there.

I've found that refreshing the page three or four times can help, as can shutting the window and opening another.

What does IIRC mean please?

i had the problem whilst using an internet cafe, but am fine at home.

IIRC = If I Remember Correctly -- I think...

IIRC - If I Recall Correctly is also another possibility.

As for the technical issues - The server seems to be ok.

Neil - can you email me re this please. Thanks

I've also had, and continue to have similar problems. Pages can't load or take several attempts.

I thought the internet just didn't like me. But it looks like others have had similar experiences. Anything change with the code over the summer?

I have had this problem for so long now and I have to keep refreshing the page until it loads up :cry:

Ditto, I've been having this problem for a while now, but again assumed it was just my computer/internet! Interestingly, having just tried it, it does appear to load fine in Firefox, just not IE.

Also experienced the same problem. However Back-Forward usually helps is my estimate...

Blimey!

Well I'm glad its not only me then, I was just getting a bit frustrated.

I can't offer any solution though.

Yes I have been having problems at home as well where this is wireless connection, but is ok at work through a server.....

Often painstakingly slow, taking minutes for the grey page to disappear... and yes it is only this website, all others load without delay :?

Well, touch wood, it all seems back to normal for me. Cheers if anyone did do something to sort it out.
