    Hey theres,

    I was wondering if there was something that could cause a lag for a webpage on the 1420. Every other website I've visited loads normally, but this webpage has a ridiculous lag to it. At first I thought it was the server, but after checking on another laptop and on a desktop, the webpage loads just fine. Any idea why this might be so?

    Clear your Cache and cookies, also see if there is a difference with IE or Firefox.

    Mmm it got a little faster, but it still lags. It won't load the page fully within five minutes, and the PDF file I'm trying to open from the webpage won't load either.

    I've tried using IE, but it's still just as slow. Gahhh :(

    Scratch the five minute thing. It loaded finally. It seems that the more I use the page the faster it loads, but it's still really slow compared to the other webpages. I'm not sure when the next page will load either.

    if all other websites load at normal speed, it means that one particular website has a slow server connection. nothing you can do about it. it's their fault, not yours.
