Well I'm having HUGE problems with the speed, or rather the slowness of Psychcentral and have had for a few weeks now, though it's getting progressively worse. I'm experiencing it right now (10.30pm Greenwich mean time) trying to get into this forum and this thread to post (I was actully on my way here to post a question about this anyway and saw this thread. It's been trying to load for the last 5 minutes and still hasn't managed it.

It's also taking forever to download my PMs to which I'm trying to reply. It's taking several minutes to down load anything anywhere on Psychcentral, and it's not my computer or internet connection as I'm connecting fine to other sites.

It does seem to happen regularly at this time of night - from about 9pm onwards - does that coincide with your backups (it never used to, that's why I ask.) Less so during the daytime here (when I can't usually make it to the computer anyway) but even during the day it's a lot slower than it used to be.

Any thoughts on what I can do?

ETA: Well it's now eight minutes later and I've waited all that time for the connection to 'Go Advanced'. I've cancelled that as it's not doing anything and wanted to add this edit. What is going on here??? I'm giving up going advanced and will try and post this straight out.
