really really slow

[Jonesey]

The site has been slowed to a crawl for me the last few weeks. I can rarely post a like (get error messages) and now can't do a positive rep either. My posts often disappear before I can post them, I have to copy and paste and keep trying. The message I get is that the site was redirected while loading or too slow to respond.

The weird thing was when I was reading from another 'puter - everything loaded just fine, then as soon as I logged in it slowed down again.

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

I would suggest that this is something to do with your PC. Try deleting your cookies/temporary internet files etc...

Sounds like you may have virus's on your computer. PetForums should never load pop-up or warning windows. I would advise buying Norton 360 antivirus software or similar.

If clearing cookies hasnt worked, try opening the "Command Prompt" from your windows menu and type in the following and press eneter to flush your dns :

ipconfig /flushdns
