How old is your PC, and what antivirus are you running, who's your internet provider, and what speeds are you getting?
This site is blazing fast for me... Maybe a malware issue?

I use Frontier, and get 151 Mbps download and 163 Mbps upload speeds. (they have 3 speed choices 50, 100, 150 Mbps)
Using Firefox browser with an HP Envy laptop, and Norton Security Suite...

Haha. Adblock Plus is old news. They have an "Acceptable Ads initiative". Meaning they sold out. Get uBlock origin in Firefox or Chrome and you'll be good. I have none of those at work and see only the vendor directory on the right of the page.

With Adblock, I don't see those.

How can you have 753 posts, and still rate one white star and "Junior Member" designation? Must have pizzed off a mod or admin!

Probably by starting threads to complain about the ads.

That's what the "I have none of those at work.." part was all about
