Archive: Hard browsing the forum with firefox


Hard browsing the forum with firefox
Last days, (did not make any changes to firefox) became significant hard to browse the forum with firefox. Normally when I was browsing in the past, fasterfox reported 6-7.000s to load the page. Now, it takes 90.000s while the same moment IExplorer is as fast as normal. Firefox has this weird delay only when browsing this forum.
My question is, does someone else have the same problem with firefox or I must search for this on my system?


no problem with my firefox


No problems here. Try to clean firefox cache, history, etc.


I was getting this too. Seems to have gone completely now.

Seems to have gone too :-) Though, I don't know the reason that caused that.
I thought it is the trialware of Outpost Firewall that I was trying last days so I uninstalled it and everything is normal again, yet I'm not sure if this is the reason.

Here: Fx+outpost+proxomitron
from time to time the forum is not loading completly but then i have same trouble in all browsers without proxo/outpost. the complete forum is delaying


could have been a duff advert. I find that some of the crap they post on here causes many browser issues.


m8 right, fx hangs always, when an advert is missing (watch statusbar)


TIP:

try an adblocker in firefox with wildcards and adjust your hosts file by setting for example al the servers you do not want to :

I.do.not want.you to 127.0.0.1


I've seen some changes to the forum and this is probably the reason why firefox is now faster than ever. :-)
Congrats to forum moderators!


Yeah, adblock with Filterset.G is the way to go. And if you don't like Google ads and loads of other Google things, CustomizeGoogle is ace!
