Slow, slow, slow!

Why is it, I wonder, that the AB is the slowest to open, or to go back to the previous page, of any website that I have so far come across?

I'd like to know this as well. It's so bad on IE9 I had to give up and switch to google chrome (what a difference). That still doesn't explain why though, AB used to bu$$er up all my other tabs too.

good evening JandyAF.

we have never spoken before.
it could just be the number of posters currently on the site that makes it seem sluggish.

I think, based on only my own feelings and no real knowledge, that it's because of all the links to adverts that have come on here recently.

Thanks for all your replies. I have not tried this topic much before, and am mostly on Puzzles/Crosswords.

I have Chrome and Firefox, but I mainly use Safari/Google. This problem seems fairly frequent as far as I'm concerned. I can't stand the ads, but I'm sure they're necessary to cover costs.
