Slow loading pages

if yew downloaded a new internet browser and have a slow pc then that could be the problem because i have 4mb broadband but a 6 year old pc so loading internet pages on my pc takes about 20 seconds and sometimes longer. this could be the problem, if it is then id say uninstall the latest internet browser that yew use and revert back to an earlier version. i dont think reverting back to an earlier version will stop yew from viewing the awesome shows on the site. the same problem goes for downloading the new divx for me because my pc is slow and so cant handle programmes in a quick and efficient time. i hope that helps yew and sorts out yewr problems ^_^

it used to happen all the time when one of the servers was down and so everyone over the world used that one server, then like a day or two later, the other server broke but luckily the other server that was broken in the first place was back up and stuff...but i digress. if, like me, yew live in england or another country in europe then at night, thats when those pesky americans are on here...id say the best option is to watch the shows at an earlier time. and also i just realised that even if yew have a 10 mb broadband, it doesnt mean it will be working at full efficiency. some internet providers dont say this directly to yew but if yew have broadband then the speed at which it is running can fluctuate wildly during times when a lot of people in yewr area are using it. id say move to a internet provider that doesnt do this...i think in the UK, BT dont do this...dont know about any other country but find out...somehow *shifty eyes* hope this helps a lot.

if yew use betas of things then this might be the reason...like the new beta for internet explorer is absolutely silly! i mean yew load a site and it bloody crashes. if yewr computer is new then it might just actually be because yew are on this site at a time when the server yew are using is super busy. either that or that maybe yew have some spyware or a rootkit hidden in yewr computer...id say do a virus/spyware scan to be sure because every few weeks, i have like a billion spyware on my pc...always the same ones. if yew dont have one and cant afford one, go on google and type in 'avg free' and download the latest one...its the best free virus and spyware checker ever! also the yahoo free spyware checker is awesome. if it is still slow then maybe yew are running too many programmes at the same time, like yew have itunes and last fm and windows live messenger and a downloader or something running at the same time and minimized in the system tray...this can tax yewr computer a lot. hope this sorts out the problem with speed on yewr new computer.

im in college so buying a new pc is outta the question coz of the money stuff...and tbh ive gotten used to the delay and try to manage my time so everytime im loading up a page...i try to continue a crossword coz yew know, im lame ^_^ i do think it would be cheaper to just buy a pc from yewr local pc shop like in the uk, we have pc world and can buy quite a good pc for about £400 which has dual core and stuff which is enough for gaming and stuff. unless yewr into design and stuff, there isnt really any need for a super brilliant pc. my mate has one but all he does on there is play games so there is really no need for all that power when most of it will probably go to waste.
