Who else finds the internet slow

    Since a few months, it's on and off, but I find that the internet is very slow sometimes, like now.

    I click on a site, and nothing happens, then I click on anoter site, and it's the same, then I come here and it's slow but I get it.

    Sometimes I think that the internet is under attack !!!

    So this leads to this question.

    If you couldn't access this site anymore or if you had no more internet service, would this bother you a lot?

    Ours is running a little slow tonight as well. It's happened before, but not often.

    Yes it would. I'd survive though.

    The issue is your computer processor or connection, not the internet itself......switch to a pentium dual-core processor with DSL, all will be fine.

    It's not my computer

    I tried many sites, and they all timed out, now they all go well and fast. Some sties went well like CNN. Many went well, and many didnt go at all !!! That happens too often.

    It's the internet's fault

    Try rebooting.

    If you've been looking at hacker or porn sights there is a good chance you have spy-ware. (NEVER install anything a hack or porn site wants you to install).

    Also, I have noticed some problems after "upgrading" to IE7. It seems to lag, hang or lockup on a lot of web pages that IE6 does not.

    We just did that, or rather Trev did, and we have had similar problems. The pc is running fine, it's just slow getting on to some sites.

    Yeah, I tried rebooting and that didn't help. It's back fast now.

    I have about 20 icons on my desktop, and when 1 site didnt want to go, I tried other sites, and most of them was the same. They timed out. While other sites were very fast.

    I was chating with a poster a few weeks ago, and we both couldn't log on here for a while, then it was slow for that person and fast for me, then it was slow for me and fast for that person and we were clicking on the same site.

    The only porn site I go to is www.watchtower.org darn harlot !!!

    Hey, I didn't notice that fullofdoubtnow.

    Last year I remembered, but this year, it just went straight by. My mind is elsewhere, maybe that's why.

    Thanks for noticing.
