Default Slow Paint Talk?

I've noticed the last week or so, that paint talk has been taking longer than normal to reload, and upload material. Any body else notice this or is this an issue with my own computer?

flying here, no issues what's so ever. Gabe - check your router and see if someone hacked in and is downloading torrents or something.

I was thinking it was my browser. They've up dated to a newer version but don't like it. So I think the browser I'm using isn't getting the support. That was my thinking. As far as my CPU. xbox, ps3, wi, iphones, kids,
And I do nothing for them, as they say.

Every time I try to leave the site, I get a pop-up requesting I take a survey. I have cleared my cache, etc... I'm about to quit visiting this site.

wtf, i've never had that issue. Sorry man, I'm no computer wizard so don't know what to tell ya or have any explanation. Don't leave! We need more people here. No offense to the regulars, but the more the better.

I have never had that problem so maybe it is just a simple setting. I would hate to see something like that drive a member away.

Really? I thought satelite would be faster than cable. I know Direct Tv wants and arm and a leg for their service.

It is the pop up blocker, I use a different browser for CT where I have the block off and I see the survey all the time.
