Just over the past week it is much slower as it assembles a page which now includes an Infolinks pop-up window that I have to X out of with ever page refresh. Yuck.

I only access Moparts on my PC at home, but this morning it was very slow to load, including replies.

But, that could be my absolute-crap internet service:
Frontier sold out 4 states' service to some outfit called Ziply Fiber...
Which ain't Zip at all, not to mention fiber out here in the boonies.
Service of any kind, including customer service, has deteriorated to the point I'm considering life without it.

Something changed in the last week. Zips right along then all of a sudden I'm back on AOL dial up. No rhyme or reason.

Like, not 5 minutes ago I gave up on the WIW section because it wouldn't open a topic. shruggy

It's becoming one big effing advertisement, I have a tablet that I use at work so I am not on their computers, and my daughter lost the password so I cannot use anblocker,and the site is unusable! I just don't see how that is going to attract any new members!

Ive had the same thing and thought it was my pc.


Now I think we all use no script, or an ad blocker or both.

This could be it that its trying to load blocked things and they time out before letting traffic through or close to that.

When I use another browser on my same pc thats not blocked it all goes fast with the BS info links.

Ive slowly been beating infosucks in my router, I let it run wild on my one browser and capture the ips running through then check them and slowly im getting them.

So they never reach my pc as they are stopped at my router.

As soon as I get the full ip list I will post it, most are amazon servers.


STOP POTATO HATE!

I just had an update from Microsoft which then tried to force their new browser on me. I got rid of that 'cause I use Firefox. But when I went on here infostinks was back even though I'm using
Adblocker, I had remembered there was something to click on top of these pages to get rid of it but it's not there anymore. I finally figured out how to adjust my AdBlocker to block it. So I don't know if that update had something to do with infostinks coming back or not.

I too have had some performance issues on Moparts the last few days, slow loading when other websites have worked fine.

This morning Moparts is working well for me.

The new microsoft edge is basically chrome. Add block plus is a one click add on on the new edge. It's best to get rid of the old edge evenf if you don't use it. It has security issues.

No issues other than the infolinks header on the bottom of the page, but one click on the "X" box/tab/icon eliminates it.... running Mozilla Firefox windows 10 on a Dell all in one touch screen

Agree, something has changed. No problems getting on at home, but from work, it times out. What is odd is my wifi at work is by far faster than here at home.

This is the only website that I visit were I have to turn my phone sideways to see. And I know for a fact they lost members over the inability to post pictures. Most of mine post sideways or upside down. And yes it has been slow loading.

Between, Malwarebytes and my eero home network I don't see any of the advertisements on Moparts.

However I see all the complaints from others and it it does seem like there are less posts these days.

It must be good money because management does not seem to care.

Their site their rules.
