Does anyone else encounter problems with trying to connect to different topics or replies? Everything will be going along just fine and then I'll click on a topic and nothing happens. I have to close my browser, re-start it and then go back into the Forums.

Or often times, I'll finish typing a response and when I click "submit," the hourglass goes around and around but nothing happens. Once again I have to close the browser and start all over again. (IF THIS COMES THROUGH, it will be the second time I've tried as the first time, nothing happened when I hit "submit.")

This is the only site that I have that difficulty with and it's really annoying. Is it my computer or do others experience this?? I use Mozilla Firefox instead of Internet Explorer.

Thanks,

Steve

Occasionally, I'll click on a topic and it might take up to 10 seconds for the page to pop up.

I've not had any problems since we went to the new server. Cheers.

Just today I have had some slow refreshes after posting or changing forums; but they happen. Your browser may have a short fatale error fuse, I use Safari and it will declare a bad link after a 90 sec.

Steve,

I have the same problem. Comes and goes. When it happens I just go elsewhere and come back later and then it seems fine.

With our dial-up connection that sometimes happens, especially when members post large photos. But it is not just on this forum. We live with it.

You might try to clean up your hard drive and discard the cookies, temp files, and other junk that builds up there. I do that periodically in Internet Explorer. Maybe Paul can tell you how to do that in Mozilla?
