Not just PPRuNe but just about everywhere I have opened pages. Sometimes OK and other times naff.

Not having any problems on my freeswerve dialup

Or the dsl in the office

Have you tried clearing your local cache as this can be a side effect of too many temp internet files.

Over 1000 posts and I bought this Personal Title to try and tell my mother the embarrassing news that I am a closet Jazz fan.

Cheeky!

I have done a complete clear out of cookies.

Still no marked improvement in one or two sites. But there is a general improvement - I think. Funny thing too. Adsl was taking a time to connect. Not normal really.

Thanks for your help.
