I have 2 computers connected to the same WiFi router. One uses Win7SP1 with all updates, plus TrendMicro Internet Security. The other uses Win8.1u1 with all updates, plus McAfee anti-virus software. Both use IE11 as the primary browser.
With the Win7 machine, PPRuNe is slower to load than any other site I know, but does so reasonably quickly. Whereas with Win8.1, PPRuNe often fails to respond and I get 'pprune.org failed to respond due to long running script' prompts. Eventually, after all the wretched adverts load, it becomes accessible.....
'googleads' and 'adclick' seem to be the culprits - the greed of excessive advertising is ruining PPRuNe and is ultimately self-defeating as more and more people resort to advert blockers.
Saab Dastard - can you do anything to improve matters? Because soon there won't be many golden eggs left for the current site owners once they've killed their goose through excessive advertising....
