Fast as usual here.
Probably a routing problem, not a webserver-side issue.

If you have alot of personal messages in you inbox that slows it down.

I second Beefhole on this one - go & bung this in the 2002 forum Grin

On a serious note, my connection is the same speed as normal & has been all week.

Cheers,

Even though I do not know how this forum is set up it might have something to do with the amount of people using a dial up to connect with. I have belonged to other forums where that can cause a slow down. I also noticed a slower connection speed last week but since I am at work it could have been something on my end that was slowing it down. With all the security and everything I know that can cause a slow down 8)

Like the others have said, no problems here. In fact, quite the reverse.

Nick when did you last check your system for spy/adware?

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Knowing Nick, I'm almost sure he has no malware whatsoever Wink

Prolly a routing or DNS issue as I said earlier = nothing to do

1. I know where I posted the thread.. I expected it to be moved and bee seen quickly

2. I am in Seattle, WA. If anyone else in in my area, please post back about the simV site behavior.

3. LOL What's Spyware? LOL

It could be a Qwest.net issue... I was just letting it be known in case it is a SimV problem.

We seem to be running okay so I'd say time to scream at your ISP mate Wink

If it makes you feel any better my ISP service has been poo since I moved! After a LOT of screaming I'm slowly getting better service....

I'm on a dedicated 10MB/s corporate line... no other site is showing the problem. It is possible other sites on the same server or route as SimV have same issue from qwest but I have not investigated it that far yet.

thanks.. Grin

Dr. Ozzy says go round to their place and tie them onto their big executive leather chairs!
Then remove their shoes and socks and insert wads of tissue paper between their toes and play with your box of matches!
Of course I'm a looney... however this sort of threat always works with my ISP... 'cos they KNOW I'd do it Shocked

Cheers,

I posted it in the main area so it would be seen quickly by admin.... and also, this would be seen by all:

Moved: NOTE TO ADMIN...

That way it will be seen by just about everyone and if the problem is not local to me, someone else could speak up.
