I use Firefox as my browser at home, but in the last couple weeks or so I've noticed this forum loads a lot slower; other web sites don't seem to have slowed any.
This evening I tried this forum on Apple's "Safari", and this forum just blazes into place; I'd rather use Firefox, though, as when I return to the previous "Topics" page it always takes me to where I left off, while Safari starts me at the top of the list every time.
Anyone else experiencing slow going recently between FZ6-Forum and Firefox? Any HTML wizards out there have any suggestions? Thanks!

I've had issues viewing picasa's web gallery photos here in the Forum and using Firefox. I switched to IE and no problems.

I use IE and Safari. No problems with either really. Did you install the recent Safari upgrade? Mac is usually pretty good at pushing out the updates.

Well DANG IT!

Now this site is loading exceedingly slow in Safari, too; yet none of the other sites I visit have any trouble! WTF?!?!?
Sounds like tomorrow I'll have to dig out the diagnostic software...

You've got malware!

Boot to safe mode after updating your AV and antispyware programs to the latest DEFs then do a full system scan using both!

Download ComboFix.exe and run that while in safe mode as well, after the av and antispyware scans.

Speaking of browsers, I use IE7 and when viewing pics in the gallery, notice these foreign characters just before the date, views, filesize, and dimensions. Does anyone else get these?
