matth76 1 Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 Jay, my GF's computer does exactly the same thing when I visit this site since the new design was implemented. I've cleaned out all the temp files and cookies. Still the same thing. However I believe one of the Admin team mentioned it's something to do with IE5 (Internet Explorer 5) and not being compatible with it. My GF's comp has IE5. I have IE6 at home and it works fine. My GF's comp is getting a bit dated now too!To find out if you have IE5 simply go to "Help" in the top menu and then select "About". This will tell you what version of Internet Explorer you have. If you do a search on Google for "IE6 download" you should be able to update to the latest version of IE. Good luck. Let us know if you need a hand. Link to post Share on other sites

jonvr6highline 0 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 I've got Version IE6 at home and work.I agree since the website transformation (different look), when going into a new post the bar on the right freezes then jumps into actioon. It does hesitate quite often everytime I come on here.Doesn't seem to be as quick as it was.Jon 8) Link to post Share on other sites
thegoth 5 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 I've got IE6 SP2 installed at work and it hangs.Firefox 1.5 at home doesn't. If you watch, it's to do with the adverts, for me anyway. The page hangs whilst trying to load them and as soon as an ad appears the page works fine.TG. Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 I am having problems too, on my laptop which is using mozilla firefox browser & my desktop at home which is IE6. Site often freezes when I click on anything and each page takes ages to load, or the screen jumps about randomly!!!!! I really like coming on here, but its becoming a pain to use now!!! In terms of appearance the site is miles better, but performance wise, it has got worse, The situation is the same whether I am at home or work and regardless of what browser I use Firefox, netscape or IE6.

vr6matt 0 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 My work has IE6, and my laptop IE5, and both have the same problem - when initially loading up it freezes for about 10seconds then displays the page, and when clicking on forum links does the same - a freeze then appears. Nothing major, just seems a bit slower than the old site design thats all. Link to post Share on other sites
Seademon 0 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Same here with IE6 & Firefox, cant be arsed to keep mentioning things dont work but apparently if I use Linux or buy a Mac it'll be fine Im not a Premium member yet though so have no right to moan (not that I am!)I think my holes deep enough, I'll shut up Link to post Share on other sites
jayvwvr6 0 Posted January 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 in a way im glad im not the only one getting this problem,cant we just go back to the old ways,or see what its like with out the adverts on the top of page to see if it quickens up?wonder how many others are getting this problem?the site is better with the upgrade just slower.cant have it both ways i suppose?

Seademon 0 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 This is what im getting on every page for a few secs, sometimes when i click on the last post in general chat - it loads up the buyers guide Link to post Share on other sites
jonvr6highline 0 Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 This is what im getting on every page for a few secs, sometimes when i click on the last post in general chat - it loads up the buyers guide Yeah mine loads up on Buyers Guide too. I know why. Its because when you click on 'General Chat', the screen jumps down and the click is then activated on 'Buyers Guide'.Pain in the backside! !dodge Link to post Share on other sites
