Morning :)

I am having big problems with this site - just so slow to type and load pages or post my replies.
Is it these darn ads? Because I don't have this problem with any other site.
I've read that some of you use ad blockers to avoid this problem.

I use Windows 7 and IE 11 (they say that's the latest IE for my system). Can anyone recommend a good ad blocker they've had success with?

Thanks :)

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Nervy Girl - thank you. That's what I will do. The site just crashed for me while trying to write my SWH. I didn't realize you could run different browsers at the same time. Going to try this!

Updated: Thanks everyone for your help! What a difference. No more annoying ads and much quicker

M.,

I started using Google Chrome for this site, and asked my husband to install adblock for me, because I was having the same problem on Firefox-- this site would sometimes crash my browser if I spent more than a few minutes on it. All of the ad scripts running meant too much going on and I'd often have to restart my computer entirely. The Chrome/Adblock solution is great.

I thought it was my laptop but one of the moderators messaged me and said they were "working on it. I hope they fix it quickly.

I do the exact same as Nervy Girl - Chrome with the Adblock add-in.

I barely use IE for anything.
Firefox I use for just about everything and the Ad Blocker add-on works great!
