Having To Wait - 16 Jul 2013

It seems every time I want to come to this site , I have to wait a couple of minutes before the page will load. more than half the time I just say forget it and do some thing else. I wonder some times how many more new people there could of been here at cc. Is there anyway to make the site a bit faster ? other forums do not seem to have this trouble. 3 to 4 minutes is to long when your just sitting here looking at screen waiting for page to turn....lol. it feels like a hole day went by. ok maybe not a hole day...lmaooo.
thanks

shirley, this does not happen for me, clear your cache and restart your computer... if that doesn't help, contact your internet provider for high speed internet.

doesn't happen to me shirls either, sometimes takes abot 10 secs to load but im guessing that's just when the spam cleaners working away but other than that I never have to wait long for site to load

lol but its true what they say, the best things are worth the wait

No problem here either, comes in fast.... several times a day

I'm sorry to hear you're having problems accessing the site Shirls. I haven't had any problems ... *knocking on wood lol

If anyone else is having this problem, please make a post and let us know, I'll get Geno on it.

Everything OK here.

Yes It has happened to me more often then not, waiting and waiting for page to load. I just leave and try again later.

Thank you Patty and Shirls, I will let Geno know and hopefully he'll be able to help.

i also have the same problem and i have to hit reload in treasure and my private messages as it takes awahile and stays froze..

Thank you Charla

thank you everyone. am glad am not the only one having problems but sorry that you are to. thanks rita

Here is my (hopefully) helpful 2 cents kids

I know it sounds too easy to be the answer..
but most of the time it really is temp files, cookies, & cache that get corrupted.

Your computer will still access them (corrupt files) because they are stored in an area that is meant for faster loading of pages you commonly use. Even when there may be a newer version of that page, it gets the common one.

Instead of just assuming it does the job (clearing cookies) because it says DONE, manually do it yourself-
Go to Tools/Internet Options/ General Tab/Browser History/ Settings
and VIEW FILES- Select All Delete!

AND, occassionally you need to clear your Flash Player &/or Java files.
Especially if you never have, they are usually inside your computer's Control Panel- Open Flash, then Java find their temp files (stored on your computer) and Delete All!

After doing all that, Restart your computer. The reason you should do a restart is because the System will automatically (unless it is broke from tweeking some setting) rid itself of the Placeholder, or the temp old file, allowing the NEW temp file to be created once again.

AND if that does help, even a little, you are on the right track and need to continue finding other temp files to delete. Empty recycle bin as well.

IF THAT does not help one bit? For me, the next logical step to try is in the Add-Ons. Disable All and Open browser, turning 1 back on at a time, until the issue is present again, and then you have identified the culprit. Maybe disabling an add-on is all that is needed.

Excellent advice Patti!!! Thank you very much!!!

Good Luck Everyone and please let us know how it works for you.
