  1. What I am talking about here is, do you ever experience pages taking a long time to load, or not loading at all? An example is clicking on a link, with the page showing that it is loading, but it doesn't? Sometimes, you may think it is your internet service provider, or other reasons concerning your internet connection. But, this may not always be the case. To see if it is your connection, the first thing I would try is using the CMD prompt and pinging Yahoo!'s servers. You can do this by clicking on Start, then typing "CMD". When that application shows, click on it. When it opens, at the prompt type the following: cd\ (This step is actually optional. It's just a habit I have gotten into over the years. You can go directly to the following, after opening the CMD application.) Type: ping 8.8.8.8 /t then press Enter. The window should look like this, at this point: NOTE: Your computer will continue to ping the server until you close the window. If you do not see lines similar to above, but see something like "Request timed out." showing up in between those lines (or instead of those lines), it will be an issue with your LAN cable, your WiFi adapter, or possibly your ISP. If, however, the pings return solid results (like shown above), then you can look at your browser as the possible culprit. Requirement: Download other browsers, or at least one to use to perform the following test. Personally, I keep several different browsers on my computers. Chrome, Opera, Firefox, and Safari, are typical examples. Now, if you are fairly sure it isn't the internet connection, having performed the above test, you should try another browser. Open a second browser of your choice. See if the same links take as long to load, as they do when using your primary browser. If they load faster every time, it is probably an add-on, or some other change that has taken place with your primary browser. The easiest way to sort this, without taking time to disable every option in the browser, is to go into your browser settings and simply reset it to its original default condition. In Chrome, for example, click on the white arrow with green background, in top right corner of your browser. Then, scroll down and click on "Settings". Go to the bottom of your Settings page and click on "Advanced". Continue scrolling to the bottom of the Settings page. At the very bottom, in the "Reset and clean up" box, click on "Reset". When the following popup opens, click "Reset". All done. No need to even close your browser and open it again. See if those same links take as long to open. Hopefully, this has sorted your problems. If not, feel free to contact me and I will see if I can help sort it for you. Alternatively, you can shoot your computer. That, I assure you, will sort the issue.
