Title: Are New Pop Up Adds Slowing Down This Board?
Post by: HB of CJ on March 18, 2013, 05:08:23 PM
Last couple of days, this forum has been running soossss slow and clunky.  Is it the new pop up adds tying things up?  FWIW, such a condition is hurting this excellent Bus Conversion Forum.  Please fix the problem!  HB of CJ (old coot) (inpatient toos) :(  PS.  I don't read any adds here

I have not seen any problems with speed lately. It seems to work just fine for me. Maybe your internet connection has slowed up or there are other issues that are causing you problems.

The Ads help pay for this bus forum, so please use them if you see something of interest.

I've had no problems and have accessed the board from multiple internet connections and multiple devices.

I don't get any pop-up ads from this site.  I am running the Firefox pop-up blocker, though.

Lots of free ad and pop-up blockers online in addition to Firefox's.

I haven't noticed any difference.

You may have some kind of malware, maybe a blot.

If you go to the Cnet site, there are several free good working downloads to minimize those problems; AD aware, Spybot search and destroy, AVG antivirus, etc. Download a free one that has the most downloads by computer users and excellent or editor's choice review. They do a good job, and I've used a few of themover the years with good results.
