Default Site Running Slow

Ever since I joined the forum it has run a little on the slow side. Guess I'm trying to decide if others are experiencing the same or is it just my computer. It seems to happen regardless of where I am and what kind of connection. I have cable at home and T1 at work and they both lag. Seems like the page loads the banner first then comes the lag before the rest of the page loads...gets kind of annoying but the site is still worth the wait!

Thanks,
Kevo

Firefox usually does run much faster, but a few weeks back MF was slow as ***** even on that browser.

Use FF and IE for this site (regardless of the software that most all forums use) is real slow for me and I have not used it for over a yr now.... IE IMO sucks!

Just wanted to give a quick update. I downloaded Firefox and I must say I'm highly impressed. Even if I only use it for this website it is very much worth it. I'm going to try incorporating it into my work laptop and replace IE but that will take some time. I have to play with firefox first and get a feel for it.
