pragmatix Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Is it just me or is the site very slow, having a really slow load, on my iPad , Mac, and iPhone is it just an Apple thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus28 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 No not just you. I'm also finding this running very slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zain611 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Yeah this happens sometimes with me. I'd think my Internet is slow but when I go on other websites its fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilto Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Been having the same issues as well, also was having a you tube survey pop up as well, I think there is something wrong with the server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomsFocus Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I tried to reply last night but it kept timing out, so not just you lol. I think they do some background updates every couple of months or so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Z Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Signed up this evening after a long haul with the slow page loading. I look forward to using the site when it becomes practical speed wise. Hope it's sorted soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 sorry about this John... usually works fine, but if I do not get this sorted then a move will happen, so please bear with us. Also, in less busy times its actually ok to use. I started noticing right now that is getting better. Evenings are worst at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old computer, still running XP, has a few problems, but I am glad the slow access to this site is not one of them! It was a bit of a worry, but since it looks like its not at my end of the line, a lot less so . Overloaded servers sounds like an unfortunate side effect of a successful site! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd seriously consider upgrading to windows 10 (or even 7). Support for XP ended a few years ago meaning you won't get any windows updates. That leaves your PC quite vulnerable to threats (which anti-malware/virus software won't detect as the windows updates have already dealt with the threat).

I'm sticking to XP never had a problem with any virus or threats, I only use the pc for running Forscan anyway, I'm Mac for everything else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Virtualbox's of XP purely to run certain software that is still 16-bit / Not Windows 7-10 friendly. It'd be on a physical machine if I had one spare capable of running it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I run XP Pro within VMWare on my Win7 64bit system purely to keep my copy of Microcat running.Sent from my SM-G965F (S9+) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke4efc Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Well yeah running an old machine for a piece of software (with no internet use/just for updates) is fine. There has been many attacks where people haven't updated from XP though and lept using the internet. The NHS ransomware attack was a big example.
