Help an old guy out

Listen you computer guys give me some assistance if you will. When I go into the Good Morning thread, and I want to post I hit the reply button and it is taking at least 3-4 minutes before it completes loading and will let me even type in the box.
Today I tried to stimulate your minds and it froze on me twice when it got to a point where it said it was loading from i28 photobucket. Would not go past that point and I had to do a task manager and shut it all down to get out of it.
So befroe very slow and now freezing up
Help :'(

Oh and it is not my internet or connections, did a test on them, or rather my wife did and we are flying at top DSL speed

Do you clean your cache and cookies on a regular basis?

Go into tools, internet options and the general screen will come up.

There are buttons for deleting items.

Deleting all the cookies is usually not good, because some of your passwords are in the cookies.
Delete files is ok, it just cleans out all the junk files internet explorer has saved.
Clear history, only if you do not depend on your address pull down menu.

Cookies can be cleaned manually, by going into the cookie directory and deleting
the files that do not look familiar.

It's not just you WILLY, mine takes awhile to load as well. And I'm running at top speed for cable(7MB downloads, verified numerous times). What is happening is that when you respond it is loading ALL of the previous posts AND pictures. Your probably running out of ram when it is loading all of it. I know that all of the other FORUMS I frequent only put up the last 10 or 20 posts at the bottom of the page to keep the page from dragging down. Maybe the eye can help on this one. Or you can start another GM thread but it would kill your WET.

Might be somethin with the YaBB server today,
it seams to run good for me and then gets hung up sometimes.

That happens here at work and then the IT guys do some maintenance and teh problem is gone.
