Has anybody else had issues with this lately? For the last few weeks I have been experiencing this.

 

I thought it was just Vista and this machine, but I am having it happen on my other 2 with XP as well.

 

I have no problems on other sites.

It's the people doing the multipost thing to boost their counts. It's slamming the servers.

I finally switched to Firefox a couple months ago, but lately, even that has been locking up on this site.

This is the only site it has happened on.

Hmmm, well I was going to suggest going to Firefox, but it sounds like even that is having problems.

 

It probably is the post-whoring going on. You know, I never really understood why people care about their post count. Heck I don't even know how many wrenches I have on this site...Never bother to look.

If you are freezing, close the damn doors and windows and turn up the heat. You do still live in Alaska, ya know? :D

 

As for the crashing, it's most likely the fryers. It's almost Turkey Day and people get a hankering for bird this time of year. KFC must be getting slammed. :thumbs:

I was having an issue getting on the site from my home laptop a couple weeks ago....It ended-up being a firewall that McAfee put up,so I deleted McAfee!.......no more issue!!! :rolleyes:

That's a neat trick in and of itself.

 

I'm a Windows/Nix SA, and it took me a couple of hours to remove Norton from this laptop when I bought it.

I read another forum that uses the same board (IPB), they stated if you have Norton and you uninstall it IE stopped freezing. Just passing along the info...

 

Norton sucks, it imbeds itself too deep, get AVG v8 Free :rolleyes:
