DU seems real slow.
When I select a thread to view it seems like it takes a hundred years to load up.

Is it just me? Anyone else?

2. Thanks Lady.
I just loaded a new version of McAfee Security Center, so maybe something there is doing it.

3. No issues for me.

If other sites seem slow and you're not doing some big downloads (which windows update may do without warning you), I'd suggest getting and running spybot. You might have some malware hogging your bandwidth.

This all assumes windows of course. If you're on Mac or Linux it's probably your ISP's or some router along the way's issue. I've seen a few times where I can't get to half of the internet because some addresses route through some machine that's down. Addresses that don't route through that machine are fine.

4. Windows Vista here.
Other websites demonstrate no delays, which made me suspect a DU problem. And the problem seems to be function-specific, i.e. opening a thread. But ya know what? Everything seems to be OK now. Maybe Agent Mike was just checking my hard drive or something.
