....and postings to this forum
I would hate to think no one is listening John... but I haven't been having any difficulties with this forum tonight or over the last few days.

I'm using IE at the moment but on another board I visit members suggested Mozilla Firefox. I have used it very successfully apart from a couple of java applications that it doesn't like. Don't forget to tick the "Pop-up Blocker" box under the Tools/Options if you choose to use this program.

You hopefully should be less vunerable to the frequent IE attacks too.

Hope this helps 8)
There is no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes.

Give the Opera and/or Firefox web browsers a go John. They are WAY better than IE in almost every instnce. The only time they have problems is on sites coded by lazy imbeciles to work properly ONLY with IE, but I have no problems with any of the sites I visit using those browsers. Opera is my favorite of the two, but Firefox is excellent too.

The webserver is actually in the US (possibly Chicago) so it might be slower at busy times depending on your ISP's international bandwidth.

I usually stop and refresh if a link/button has taken longer than 20-30 seconds to display. Not sure what would happen with posting .... YMMV
