Simon,

It seems that there are a few more people who have come forward to confirm some amount of slowness, so it isn't perhaps just the UK. For your information, I am using Norton Anti Virus 2007, and I have it set with the ad blocker turned OFF. Pop ups are blocked however. I have run it this way for about 3 months now, and I had to turn the ad blocker off to be able to view certain areas of the UK Ebay site (something to do with Mediaplex I think).
As another member has stated, this is also the slowest site that I currently use regularly, and I base my findings as a comparison with Ebay and the UK Alfa forum alfaowner.com, who many of you are familiar with. It isn't as though it's on a dial up with Windows 95, but it is just noticably slower. Let's look on the bright side though - it's worth the wait! If you look at some of the threads in the Spider section, you will see that it has saved my sanity on more than one occasion........
