What is wrong with this site? I know it has a lot of users but it is more than that. It gets on slow spells even when there are only two or three here. It's not my computer. Only happens here.

I get the same thing occasionally, somtimes it says "bad responce from server" in a few minnutes its fine again.

Im not a computer guy, but it only seems to happen here.

This may help some of you out........
go to start
run
type in prefetch

It will open a file usually full of files, these files are just pieces of web pages your computer keeps everytime you go to a website.
When the get there you will see several files , some will have more than others if you have never done this.
After you get to the page hold your CONTROL key down and tap the A key , they will highlight every file , when they are highlighted hit DELETE and then clean out RECYCLE BIN , once you do this restart your computer and you will notice the difference. Do this at least once a week . PM me if you have any questions.

Prefetch has no effect of loading faster. It actually helps Windows XP load faster.

This is about the simpliest page I could find to explain the prefetch in simple terms.

I can clean out cookies and run a defrag and seams to help some but I am sure a lot of it is the sight part of the time. Just deleating the cookies helps a lot if you have been on for a long time.

You can allso right click on your internet explorer, then click on proporties and deleate and it will give you a choice of what cookies you want to deleate. I just deleat them all. You can do that several times a day if you are on here or browseing a lot.

It's been as fast as a speeding bullet since I got back in here yesterday afternoon and I haven't done anything! I think the webmaster must have fixed it! Thanks!

I have a fairly new 'puter with Vista and a Norton program that does computer management tasks automatically.
