Slowed right down

Anyone else having problems with switching from one page/topic to another on here for the last couple of days?

When I click to go on to the next page nothing happens for about half a minute or so, sometimes not at all, it just stays put.

Have refreshed the page, cleared cookies and done scans etc, but still playing up and it is only on this site.

Thanks.

Re: Slowed right down

I've experienced the same on other sites Mups, though not here.

they get real clunky and the pages just seem to hang in limbo.

I did what realspeed has just suggested and it worked for me.

Thanks for the input folks.

I do delete my browsing history most days, but it's not making any difference this time. I'll switch off for a while and try later I think.

Thanks again.

Hi

It is an over 50's Site Mups.

Things do take longer as you get older.

Turning it off and back on again (or restarting) is always worth trying.

Re: Slowed right down

Are the pages clogged up with adverts? That could be the reason - they're taking too much time loading. The only adverts I see on OFF are for the doggy websites, no offers of marriage from Russian ladies or sexy ladies offering their services in your area here.

Another thing, which browser are you using?

I'll have to come back to you on that later Judd.
I'm on my lap top at the mo, and it is the big p.c. that keeps going wrong.
