Default Anyone else having delays loading thread pages?

Just wanting to know if it's only me. Clicking on a thread, then it will load the first post and take up to 30 seconds to load the rest of the page.
Anyone else having this problem?
Getting annoyed...

Nope...loads very fast...try re-booting and run a scan...if it is still slow, delete un-needed temporary internet files...if that don't work,run an external scan from BitDefender ...they have a free scan service..you may have a virus.

If yu have Norton..dump it...it misses certain viruses and is a resource hog...

It happens to me sometimes.I was told it could have something to do with how many people are using the forum at the time.

It's probably on your end. Clear your internet browsing history or allocate a bit more memory to it. Check your trash or delete folder and empty if needed. You never did say if you are on a PC or a Mac...or how up to date your machine is or even your method of getting online.

It's a server issue, IB knows about it, but so far has been unable to track the exact problem. Probably a load balance.

If I use internet explorer I have the delay loading pages. If I access through AOL it's fine. No delay.

Default Delays and Pictures, Illustrations not showing for me

I'm getting some delays and many of the pieces of artwork (buttons, symbols, pictures) are not opening or showing. The c7.jpg hangs when first opening, and so when I log in, the c2.jpg hangs.
