Posted in the right place, but I haven't noticed any slowdown. What browser and version number are you using? Using any add-ons?

Might try deleting your temp. files.

When you say you have refresh speed issues, are you seeing an Allstate ad (most likely top)?

I have the same issue. There is some problem with the forum keeping the pages from loading, been happening for almost a week. It's unusable the way it is. It's not my computer, I tried it on 2 other machines and on another persons ISP. It improved slightly today or I couldn't have even made this post. I am also using Firefox with no problems on any other site.

Funny you should mention that, yes. Its usually State Farm, as I'm having the same issue as the OP.
No problems on other forums; using IE.

I am having a horrible time getting Corvette Forum to load. I have a new PC. I don't know if there is a problem with my browser or Corvette Forum.

After minimizing Corvette Forum after visiting each forum, things have improved. I wonder if it had something to do with my new PC?

Corvette Forum loads OK from work, but there are no ads.

I am still having problems from home. I will contact the Geek Squad if problems persist.
