I did a search for this topic, but didn't yield much. My PC seems to run fine even with multiple windows open, my ISP provider is comcast cable which always scores fairly high on toast.net's speed test.
Whenever I browse 2+2 I'm stuck waiting over 2 minutes for each page to load, the only other site that behaves similiar to this is myspace.com. I seems like the page is always waiting for the banners to load, It gets frustrating - sometimes [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img], I timed each page loading right before I posted this and was at about 2 mins per page Can anyone help |

Heres a little tip that could show what's going on out there on the internets:
From a command line, run the following: tracert 74.205.14.225 (this is the ip address I get when resolving twoplustwo via a ping command, there're probably many more servers/ip addresses. Or not.) From this point, depending on the responses involved (50-100ms wouldn't be too bad), you can see where the troublesome node is, or, if there's not one, you can assume there's some filtering involved. But.. at what level? |

I use an extension called FasterFox. I'm not exactly sure what it does for me, but there's an optional timer on the bottom of the page, letting you know how frustrated to get when the page stalls. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I would recommend to start using Opera or Firefox and if you're already using them fully uninstall and reinstall them. Most of the lag is probably coming from there or your pc needs to be cleaned out. |

If it's beyond your control, then, well, it's beyond your control. But it's always best to check things that are easy to look into before starting to try fixing a problem that you can't even fix. I don't know about you, but when someone tells me their pc won't power on, the first thing I check is that it's plugged in. I'll save checking all the motherboard connections, etc., til after I've gone over the simple things. |

Don't know if I'm allowed to say this, but I'll give it a shot.
If you use Firefox, you can use Adblock Plus to block the ads. If you're using IE, I don't know what you can do. |
