ok this doesn't happen on every website that i go to just a few and i really don't understand why because a lot of people that i know are using this website and they don't ever really complain...and the other websites that i try and go to let me on without any kind of problem...the one that is giving me such a problem is a search engine website and i didn't think that seemed right...it really takes awhile to load whenever i type something in and going to pages, but then there are other times that it loads really fast just most times it is slow...i am using a browser...does anyone know what hte problem is...i have vista too if that helps?

Hi there, i thnk the search engine you are using is quite popular at times, there for it will be slower, also if you go on your internet at peak times it will be slower than usual as more people are using it. The only thing i can suggest is use Lavasoft antispyware, this will clean all the spyware on your computer which will speed it up. Use a virus scanner to scan for viruses and trojans, Go into control panel, internet options, general tab, and delete all of your offline and temporary internet files, this can speed it up or use disk clean up in start accessories system tools. Hope this helps and good luck with it! Cheers Dhicks2008

If your experiencing this only on a particular site while the rest are ok then its probably just the traffic in the your connection. You can observe this on certain hours of the day. But at in any case try to clean up your temporary internet files and and see what's up. It would be a good idea also to have alternative browsers to pinpoint where the problem is. If your using IE try getting Firefox, Opera or Safari.
