I have noticed in the past few weeks that wikiHow (there I did the capital H your welcome June) has been very slow. I literally waited fifteen minutes just to get on the forums, and then it takes twenty minutes to get onto a thread. I just spent about a half an hour trying to make this thread waiting and waiting. I know it’s not my computer because I rebooted it and when i check other things (such as email) it’s not slow. Could somebody please look into this and post a comment if this is also happening to you? Thanks guys!
This must be on your part. Because, wikiHow, and their forums are not slow for me. It is possible that it could be your ISP, but I don’t know.

I’m having big probs on wH, and forums stays mostly locked up. Lots of ‘kill pages’ offers. Win xp pro, Chrome and Firefox…but that was yesterday, no problems today.
^If that problem comes up again, make a thread in the Bug Reports. It helps.

Seems to happen “at times…” no problems now, big problems at, say 5pm. (Peak use times?)

My slowness seems to be mostly a flash/shockwave problem, which I notice is system-wide, bad in Chrome, and worse, maybe, in Firefox? The latest adobe update did not help, but what did help was to enter “about:plugins” into my browser (Chrome), expand the flash/shockwave entry, which is two files, and disable one or the other (the ‘appdata,’ or ‘applications’ file seems to be the more pop delete; mine is the other), one at a time, then close browser and reopen. This has largely eradicated (yikes, isn’t there a smaller word for that?) my problem. Best of luck.

ok, and after adobe’s latest update, I had to (just now) go back into about:plugins, and switch the enabled one again, for my browser to work @ wH, or even load
here. W/o the switch, all I gt is ‘kill pages, kill pages…’
