Question OSO timing out

I have been having some problems for the last week or so. There was a Sticky thread last week here in the GD talking about upgrades to the system and maybe some problems. I stated the problems I have been having and a Mod replied that it was noted on IB's facebook that similar problems were being seen on some of their other sites. This sticky thread is now gone and I still am having problems.
When I pull up the forum the first ~10 pages load just fine. After that it will stall when loading. It will just say:

Waiting for http://www.offshoreonly.com............

While it is stalled I can go to my favorites and load any other website and then immediately hit the back arrow and the page I was trying to load will magically be loaded. This is the only forum or website that I have any problem viewing or have a timing out issue.

Am I the only one having these issues? I have cleared my cache, rebooted my computer, updated FireFox, uninstalled and reinstalled FireFox. It runs with Internet Explorer but crazy slow. I am at my wits' end and just looking for some help.

Thanks

I thought was just me. I hope they get it fixed soon as it's driving me crazy.

I have never had any problems with the site either. It was always fast for me and I always wondered what others were talking about. I did not change anything on my computer. I view the site on many computers and mainly the issues are on my main computer. I have used this computer for the last 3 years. I did update FireFox a couple days before the problem but I do not remember it affecting this site right away.

I am now going to try to restore my computer to a date prior to me having these issues. Wish me luck!

Same here and I use several different computers to surf as well as the GF's Ipad. No issues with any of them

I sent an email to OSO about the problem and asked if there is anything they could do on there end. Now things seem to be working good again? Don't know if they did something or if it's just a coincidence.
