Re: Lazy Internet!

Could be down to caching settings on your browser?

Does it happen all the time?

restart your modem/router, perhaps?

Re: Lazy Internet!

Is it on the same site?

Some sites are slower than others

Re: Lazy Internet!

I had problems with firefox too few days ago...

It took ages to start it, and the load times of any webpage was just horrible. I did all kind of scans(from anti-virus to ad-aware). And nothing was found...

Then i started to think back when it started. And i remembered that i did install a new theme for firefox(to fix image persistence in my LCD). So i deleted the theme, and my internet speeded up again... Im not sure what caused the slow down, but something in that theme caused it...

I had exactly that. Fixed it by uninstalling my firewall, then a few days happened again so i uninstalled Spybot and it works fine again. I wonder if it was a Firefox issue all along...

Hmmm..

That's weird.. Spybot hasn't given me any trouble... Except for the tea timer thing what i had on few months ago...

Re: Lazy Internet!

Software firewalls are horrible..avoid them and get a NAT Router with the built in hardware firewall... a clean PC with just that is plenty. I wouldn't point to FF being a issue unless of course your running one of the beta's then if your having issues... DUR!

Re: Lazy Internet!

I have router what has firewall in it... But i don't use it, since there is too much trouble to open the ports etc.. I have to change my IP adress an so on just to get to the settings...

So im happy with my software firewall and haven't had any problems with that...

Re: Lazy Internet!

well it doesn't happen all the time but often enough to annoy me.. As someone said it could just be the site in which the movie is being hosted and streamed from because it isn't every movie.. but then again it also happens on youtube sometimes so i don't know i normaly just refresh and it doesnt do it again and if it does i delete browsing history and that seems to take care of it..It's just annoying is all.
