I dunno if its just my computer. But that java programmed countdown clock really slows down the message board for me? I have a T3 cable connection b/c i'm at college, but it is still slow to load b/c of that clock. Anyone else having problems?

hmmm. Dosent slow me down a bit. Everyone let us know... cause if this is the case we will give the clock the old boot

No slow downs with the countdown clock here.

I have had my cable modem since November 1... that sure helps. Not sure how poor it would be if I was still using a dial-up modem.

Doesn't slow me down, but I have a really super fast connect so I am not a good judge of the typical connection.

I don't think it slows me down any either. I got Roadrunner (cable modem) a few weeks ago so everything loads fast now.

This board has always loaded faster for me than TWC board, even before I got Roadrunner when I used dial-up.

Sorry JQ

Is it slower than TWC board??? :o

I think i discovered the problem. Whenever i use netscape on this site it is slower. But when i use internet explorer it works just fine...really fast. Oh well maybe thats the problem hehehe :o Actually it is faster than TWC when I use internet explorer hehe.

Glad you figured out the problem JQ

Glad to here that JQ...I use to be a Netscape Communicator fan but got tired of fighting all the web sites optimized for IE...

Chad and I are both on Road Runner so sometimes we forget about the dial up.... Let us know if things slow down! :-)

I was gonna say, it has to be the Netscape, which has always been slower than IE. I'm on a dial up modem here at home, and, I haven't had any problem with it! :scatter:

Stick with IE...things run fine here as well...actually faster page loads than TWC. :wink:

The only reason i use netscape is b/c my internet explorer has been going crazy it doesn't work half the time. But on the home computer it works just fine. Maybe my dorm comp just has a bug.

Possible JQ...sometimes if you re-install the Explorer and get all of the updates from Microsoft...it'll run flawlessly.

agree with Rob.... got to stay current with the updates

No problems here with the clock and a dial-up connection.

Just a mention for those that haven't notice for one reason or another... The Countdown to the 2003 Hurricane Season is in Central Time, not Eastern Time.

Posted: **Sun Feb 09, 2003 6:16 pm**

zipping along for me too. I also have RR if that matters??? :wink:

My speed seems ok, but that crazy clock comes through on top of other stuff that I have open. What is it counting down to anyway?

Posted: **Sun Feb 09, 2003 6:49 pm**

The clock is counting down to Tuesday, June 1st, the start of the 2003 Hurricane Season.

It says, Countdown To Cane Season 2003 right above it.
