For se Firefox users, especially 3.0.8, take a gander at This from the Mozziller forum. There is hope!! It suggests installing a new add-on to Firefox, I did it, and so far....it's kickin booty this mornin! I'll have to test it on the puter at home, but here at the shop, there is no issues with page load speed anymore....
The suggested add-on is called No Script, and be SURE to read thru the info on it. as it will require you to "Allow" or "Disallow" certain stuff quite often, until you determine how to set it for good, then it's fine.

This is working FOR ME....just an idea for others to ponder, and make your own decision.

Ok... another question for only those of you experiencing long page load times.

At the bottom of every FORUM page, below the "Web Wiz Forums" logo, there is a line that says "This page was generated in X.XXX seconds."

Please tell me what that value is on the pages that you say are taking really long.

Thanks!

[QUOTE=dnv]Adam;

I am getting a message that says I am not authorized to log into General C3VR Chit Chat because I am not a "full" member...  Is there a membership level higher than Lifer that I'm not aware of?

Must be because Ebo is the moderator (just a guess)
[/QUOTE]

dnv,
when you get that message, does it say "Logged in as [your user name]" at the top left of the page AND also say "Logout [user name]" at the top right of the forum page (near the Member List link).?

Yessir it do!

It seems OK most of the time however, when it happens, once or twice per day, it won't even let me in to the forum main page.  It doesn't seem to be any of the other forums except the General C3VR Chit-Chat.  I'll go play some more and see if I can screw it up again!

BTW, this page was generated in 0.406 seconds.

This page was generated in 4.922 seconds.
This would be blindingly fast...if it were true. It's better now since I did what I did, actually MUCH better, but the 4+ seconds is a bit optimistic, as far as actually SEEING the page.
I think most of my issues now may be with my settings, and processor, but my other forum sites(Classic Goldwing forum, transmission forums, ect.) are quicker to load.

Ya know what...it don't really even matter to me...if it takes 3 minutes to load a page here, it's worth the wait...

Here is something that might help some that have just upgraded to(and use) IE 8....

Internet Explorer has an update to 8.0, when this happens you may get a "time out" error or a "navigation error".
To repair this:

# Open Internet Explorer
# Click on Tools
# Select "Internet Options"
# Click on "Security"
# Click on "Custom Level"
# Under the Title "Miscellaneous" find "Display Mixed Content"
# Click on "Enable"
# Then "Apply" and "OK"

I'm just "crusing" with my Windows XP SP3 Exploror 7.0.  Every once in a while I see that I get "denied" to something but then again, my wife does that to me also!!!

I have just discovered a problem!!  I tried to start a new question in a forum and received a message saying that I could not post a topic, I did not have permissions !!  Whats up with that? Adam??  I have just found a 1978 Ann Edition Vette with 52K, L48 for sale.  Looks nifty, I wanna talk to somebody that has one.  They can call me at (is it safe to post phone numbers here??).
Maybe I shopuld be talking to Jim (norsky) he lives close to me!!
