Hi Warp2search is running very slow at my end due to the Adverts you serve. I run Protowall and have ckosen to block adverts. Any that get blocked take quite a while to time out. I have to wait a couple of minutes for every single page to laod from W2S. I have made W2S aware of this (by creating a news post when the forums were down) but they have not responded (and the news post wasnt put up). Here is a short clip from my protowall log 2004/08/10 13:03:38 [

Yeah.. it is the ads.. after I activated Adzapper in my firewall W2S is as fast as ever..

I'll try and be polite to the previous poster... Do you have any idea how hard it can be to run a web server sometimes? I've stayed up all night to resolve a probleam that ended up being so simple. It is not like a car, where a light comes on telling you the oil level is too high, or you low on fuel or anything. You have to track it down. For you to give W2S that kind of attitude, with all do respect, find a better site. Threatening them, is just uncalled for. They don't want there server to be like this, and they will (have actually, everything seemed to be running smooth as usual, btw I'm not part of the w2s team in anyway..) fix the problem. Patience is one really important thing in life. Which you just don't have it would seem. Cheers

according to my opera browser its the requests to www.warp2search.net that takes a long time.. not requests to adservers.

Hey, I tell you what, you run THIS server, without any ads, and 24/7, 365 days of the year, with your money, then I will, as a kid would put it... "stfu" as you say? Bandwidth isn't cheap. (hence ads to try and cover the costs which most of the time don't bring enough money, therefore more money out of there pockets)This website is done purely as a hobby. No one is getting paid to run it, it is done from free time. If this was www.microsoft.com or a company website, that was down then I fully understand where you are coming from. Since this is not a company website, you need to get your act together and stop making empty threats. If you really don't like it, then why not go to another news site? Cheers

I agree with the others, this slowness is just plain crazy. I have used W2S for months as my startup page, but no more. I don't have the time nor inclination to wait MINUTES for one page to load. I'm sure that you have lost many more viewers because of this. I would hope that this is resolved very soon or I will be one of those as well.
