>>>>During the past several weeks I have been having problems using UT. It looks like on every second click (every other message I want to read) it takes very long to get the message. Sometimes when I post a message (and I don't post many) it takes several times until the message goes to the board. I use FireFox 3.16.13. Is this an issue with Firefox or UT?

>>When I just clicked on Reply (to reply to your message) I was watching my wall clock and it took about 3 minutes for the message "Waiting for Univesalthread.com...." to go away and for the screen when I can start typing to appear. It could be that it is on my end (possibly FireFox or something else). I will try connecting from another computer that has IE 8.

I'll stick with what I've got. I find any examples of things that are slower and more erratic than myself somewhat reassuring......
