Having Trouble Reading Messages
#1
Don't know what has happened but I am only able to read about four messages before the next nineteen take forever to load (sometimes they never do and I wind up manually shutting it down). I have run virus scans (AVG), Ad Aware, Malwarebytes Antimalware and nothing harmful turns up. I have done disc clean up, and defrag but nothing helps. I have a long list of cookies and recognize some of them from sites I visit but don't recognize most of them. I tried removing some but then get pop up windows asking me to accept things I never heard of.
This is driving me absolutely bannanas. Any help would be truly appreciated. It was bliss when I could read all the helpful information here and surf to all the different sites.

My computer is only about a year old. I am using Mozilla Firefox and yes, I have defragged also. I receive my daily Quiltboard messages through gmail (also experience the same problem when reading messages from my yahoo groups). I'm about convinced I have picked up a virus but would it allow me to read only a few messages and then lose the connection?

If you have Safari, then go to the top and tell Safari
to "Reset Safari" which will clean out a lot of stuff that is
making it slow. I just had to do that an hour or so ago. I'd
downloaded some sweepstakes information that immediately
slowed down my computer. Took ages to start new files.
