I’ve been having this issue in IE and on Saturday and today, my browser crashed. Couldn’t access the site, although I am using Chrome to access and write this post. It appears to be happening during the load of adverts from an adserver – that may be a red herring but both times that was showing as loading when IE crashed. It does something weird because then it ties up my PC for about 20 mins and can’t do anything until the threads die (Win XP).
Agreed – there appear to be a few domains slow to display images.
http://img.cdn.adjuggler.com (large ads at the top)
http://www.getsmiles.com (emiticons I think)
Basically it means displaying a new page can take anywhere from 5 to 30 seconds to display depending on what is displayed … meaning I avoid reading a thread unless I’m sure I can be bothered waiting for it.
IE browser, Windows Vista.
I also notice two things :
1) Firefox is quicker.
2) when the ad is sourced from rotator.adjuggler.com then it’s much quicker.
