I used IE for years, up to and including version7. I started having an issue with pages loading. Basically they wouldn't, especially if they were links from other pages. Finally I discovered that if I highlighted the web address and pushed enter, the pages would load. Having had enough of this, I tried Firefox which, compared to IE was a godsend. Pages and links loaded quickly. Now, I seem to be having the same issue with Firefox (Vers. 3.5.4) I have a high speed cable connection (tests as over 8500kbps) and yet I sit here for sometimes a minute waiting for a page to load, unless I do the highlight trick and even then, sometimes the pages won't load. What the heck could be going on? Any ideas?
