Sign In = Extremely Slow Loading / Conenections Reset By Server

[SandSquid]

Sometime late last week my access to this forum took a massive Valium.

If I access the site as a guest, from any random computer everything is fine.

As soon as I "sign in" it takes pages literally 5+ minutes to load any page, if it loads at all.

Most of the time I get a"connection has been reset by the server" error.

I thought it might be my local LAN so I took my laptop to the local laundromat (closest free WiFi) and it did the same thing.

While at the laundromat, I tried using my daughters MacBookPro which, had never accessed the sight before.

pages loaded nice and fast while attached as a guest, nice and speedy.

Soon as I "signed in", the speed took a massive dump on me.

I wonder how long it will take to reload soon as I click "post New Topic" button.

or if it will time out on me.....

If you are using Firefox, update it and disable all the addons.

I had similar issues once here, it was an outdated/bad addon.

Clear temp files and cookies etc also.

Yes, it sounds like a cookie problem. Let us know if the problem continues, please.

Since he has the same problem using a different computer it can't be a cookie issue.

It can be once he's logged in to his account. There is a button on the index page of the forum to delete the board cookies. Sometimes it helps to click that, then log back in.
