Im getting a slow load time whenever i first enter the site.
"Waiting for gooleadservices.com"......this also happens going from page to page...
anyone else having this problem?
 
Maybe your internet connection or a virus I tried that before I can load other website very fast but not in search engine and other website
 
this is not happening on any other web page i visit, only here. I have a very fast internet connection and i come to a virtual..no pun..standstill when i hit this site, waiting for load time.
 
I am getting the same exact problem. Maybe googleadservices is messed up.

I have tested in both IE and Firefox
 
Please list your load times, connection speed, and broswer version. We have reported this thread to Google so please give us all the facts, thanks.
 
It takes about 10 seconds for the main page to fully load for me I'm using a 6m/512k at&t DSL connection and I'm running FF 2.0 with all the latest updates
 
16 seconds for me for the front page to load. Wireless connection speed is 9865/975. Firefox 2.0.0.1.4
 
Mine was slow a little while ago loading up but it's working just fine now on 10 meg connection and FF3.
 
lose the "www." from www.hardforum.com

Today was slow, real slow. Used this method which is a very common alternative to the natives here and it works. Sometimes, there's nothing one can do but today at least--it'll work for ya.
 
I have been hammering on the forums ALL day long and have not seen any issues at all with load. Most of mine are 1 or 2 seconds at most.

Less than 30 database errors since midnight. Most have to do with timeouts due to mailserver waits.
 
There are issues.
At times there are around 30 second delays after clicking links.
I just had to wait around 5 minutes to get any response from the site and this thread took 26 seconds to load after.
Browsing other websites was not affected.
 
The forum for me, has been fine. However, if I go to the main site, it takes around 25-30 seconds to load, and maybe 45% of the time, my browser will show "Not Responding" for 3-5 seconds. I'm using Vista x64 with Firefox 2.0.0.14. This just started about a week or so ago, but only happens on [H]...not other website I've tried to visit has this issue.

But, to be sure, I'm going to update my FF to FF3 to see if it's a local issue...
 
Kyle, the slow load time is on the mainpage, not the forums (at least for me anyway).

IE6 and Firefox both have the 20-30 second delay from my work computer. IE gives no indication what it is waiting for, but FF states that it is google ads that is holding it up.

At home I have IE7 and FireFox3. No delays at all.
