IE 7

Anyone else experiencing problems? Pages not loading or taking forever to load. I have disabled the phishing filter but it hasn't made much difference.

The site has been very slow for me recently.

Me too - at home and at work!

I was referring to internet access generally with IE 7 rather than our site specifically, but I'll pass the comments on to Paul to deal with.

Phishing filter can slow things down _a bit_ but overall I've found IE7 as fast as IE6. Sorry, Bob.

It may not by IE - BT have been fiddling with peoples line's recently ("ADSL maxing" them). Increases bandwidth and good for web pages/youtube etc but reliability has taken a hit. May be that IE is taking a while as it needs to keep reconnecting. We've had loads of problems with our customers at work who need low bandwidth, high reliability to move their surgeries data between sites. It is supposed to settle down after 10 days but a reboot of your router/modem as often as possible can make a difference if it's always trned on.

Also remember that there is a limted amount of space for everyone in your area to use - if the speed suddenly slows at 7pm in the evening, it could be that next door are downloading videos or something.

If you are running Internet Explorer, click on Help and then About Internet Explorer. IE 7 is available as a download but chances are you are still running IE 6.
