maltese jambo Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Is anyone else having problems with kickback? For me it takes ages to sign in, sometimes freezing the computer, takes ages to post a message or see any thread either. Is it perhaps something to do with all these wee moving ads which are being placed on the site slowing it down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it perhaps something to do with all these wee moving ads which are being placed on the site slowing it down? What browser are you using? Are other sites slow as well? All working at normal speed here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigaro Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Pretty quick for me. Using Firefox. Saying that, now and again it goes slow, but I think thats when I have Photoshop and Illustrator open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cigaro Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Meh. You mean it's not working for you ? Nah it is, I was just advising the OP that if he wanted it to be mega fast, Fasterfox is definitely definitely 100% guaranteed to be allowed on Kickback.

Guest GhostHunter Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 The "wee ads" help keep Kickback running...coupled with sub money, we should be able to improve JKB even further in the very near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirk Diggler Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I have just installed Firefox and I have to say Kickback is like night and day. A lot lot faster! As have I. It is quicker. The one difference I notice with firefox is when I'm scrolling down a page, That seems to be slower. Is that common? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Diggler Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Also, How do I go about swapping from Firefox to IE and vice versa? Any help would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherlock Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Also, How do I go about swapping from Firefox to IE and vice versa? Any help would be much appreciated. I think there's a FF add-on that allows you to view IE only web pages through FF but i can't find it (although i've not really looked that hard). I just have both icons on my desktop and use FF as a default and IE as required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
