    I had a lot of trouble yesterday (using Safari on a Mac) that I finally determined was caused by poorly coded animated banner ads at the top of each page, which were taking up all available processor and memory and locking up my browser. Using an ad blocker (Adblock Plus) solved all problems immediately. Not good for the sponsors, but I don't come to a straight razor forum to have my system locked up by ads for cartridge razors that are written with memory leaks in them.

    I've been having trouble too but only on this site. Long delays in typing, and trouble navigating, have been using Edge(new to me) but I keep going back to my iPad. I don't know but it's a little aggravating. Tc

    I never have heard of Edge, but now I want it!

    Same reason I wanted a phone named razr ...... what could be a more appropriate browser for a wet shaver than Edge ............

    Well, whatever the issue was it appears to have resolved itself, touch wood. I don't like using other browsers than Edge so I hope it stays cleared up.

    Now that SRP and Photobucket are both working in Canada, Photobucket is still down in Wisconsin.
