I am using Vista Aero with an HP portable and I am averaging about 15-30 seconds for downloading with IE7. When I try the Safari it is less than that. I do have a high speed cable modem.
Hi RTM,
Your lucky dog with having cable. I'm on dial-up @ 28.8kbs at the best.
T-1 is $500/mth or satellite@$60/mth is my only choice. No DSL or cable here.
But it's still a website problem here as I don't have any problems with my other websites. During the day, I stream 90mb of real time stock chart data in 6hrs with 7 open web tabs and two special direct connect software programs. If it was a problem on my end, I would never be able to DL 90mb in 6hrs.

Buy UNION work UNION. It pays off in the long run Define Union: A labor Union is nothing more than united workers with a common goal for better working conditions.
We all are in some sort of labor Union, some are just larger than others with better working conditions!

Haven't had it that long. I used to have a second line just for dial up. Now I eliminated that line. Cost is just a finite more. Will never go back to dial up although Earthlink allows 40 hours of dialup with the cable modem. But when I get on the road I always seem to find a hotspot to get on.

This morning it's 5min to load the first page, 3min to load the 2nd page, and 2min to load one thread. Pause for a short read then 3min load this page and another 2min to load this thread.
So 15min load time for 3 web pages and 2 threads.

I don't know whether to be impressed with your patience, or amazed that you find this place worthy of such commitment.
Tell you one thing, though...were I one of those who took the bait on the "special memberships", I'd insist on having that tag removed from my profile. Every time I see it, all that comes to mind is..."sucker". I'm sure many bought it in good faith, but sheesh...what a waste of money.

Why hasn't a moderator chimed in here to help with the problem?? I used to prefer TDS over ALL other diesel sites, but I think if this keeps up.... I will not be visiting this site much more.

Maybe it's just me but I have no issue with site speed whatsoever on either of our computers.
We have Time Warner DSL hooked to a WIFI router in the house and this site comes up as fast as any site I visit everytime I log on which is normally less than 5 seconds.
Not saying you guys don't have speed issues but wanted to let everyone know that not everyone is experiencing the same problem.
