For some reason, after the upgrade to this board, everything loads so very slowly. What is going on? I have DSL at home and a T1 line at work and in both places the pages draw excruiatingly slow. What gives? This may just be me but I would like to hear from others on this issue. Thanks

Maybe you should look in the About This Message Board forum.

Sorry about asking the question that was already answered. I just got a bit frustrated when trying to read threads. Thanks again.

Questions About This Message Board go to ATMB. I’d move it, but since it has already been brought up there, I’ll just close this.
