I noticed that with Mozilla Firefox it's a lot faster than with Internet Explorer... So if you're still experiencing problems with IE, use Firefox... it's faster;)

Have any of you still had problems with speed? I've had normal speed for several days now. The problem earlier might have been down to host isp problems. No specific problem on the server side was found.

I have to say now, since thrusday my speed is absolutely okay and great, just like before. I really hated the right moment when I couldn't even do anything, but I'm finally back here posting:D

BTW, what's isp?, just wondering:D

Internet Service Provider.. how you get the internet.

I think I got it.. it means, you get internet by means of.. dial-up, a modem, ntc.. Well if so I understood. Thanks.

11-12-2006, 4:12pm

No... The ISP the internet service provider... it's like a company like AOL, etc. that gives you access to the internet either by dial-up, wireless, cable modem .... Got it now, Alex;)??

Over the last 2 days, it's either been very slow where I couldn't look at anything, or the website wouldn't work for me at all. This is actually the 1st time in 2 days I've been able to post!

Hi guys, glad we're back. The isp was doing network upgrades, presumably due to the earlier slowness problems. Let's hope it now continues to work normally.
