Seems ok to me!

No problem here nailit.

It's your laptop (or, just as likely, your internet connection).

Must be my lappy then. (or internet connection, im using a dongle) Seems ok when I type something into google and it seems ok when im loading other web pages but it seems a little slow when typing or loading on here.
Thanks anyway guys.

I tried to order my groceries online this morning from Asda and that was sticking and freezing all over the place. I just assumed it was down to the sheer volume of traffic on t'internet.

Well, I access AB from three different browsers, one of which (IE) is not configured to zap the ads: and it's by far the slowest of the three. It's particularly noticeable if I refresh the page.
So it may be that people who find AB more responsive are using similarly configured browsers. It's possible, anyway.

[nailit]

That figures, thank you.
Is there anyway I can get rid of the ads on a dongle? I'm not very techno minded but some of the ads, particularly the 'video' ads are annoying (and I presume data consuming)?
Thanks.

Mine has been dreadful all day - the typing appearing on screen is sometimes 10 seconds or more behind me! Completely fed up with it!

what do you mean by sticky?

1. Use any browser but IE, Firefox or Chrome for preference.

2. Install an add-on which cannot be mentioned on this site. You'll be amazed at the difference.

Cant you anagram the name Blackadder?

[BlackadderV]

As this site depends totally on advertising for its revenue, I can't really give a hint as it will soon be zapped.

OK, fair enough.
