for some reason when I click on to change to a new window it seems to lock up and takes forever to open and I'm on high speed here. any time I change from here to there started 2 days ago...have done a system restore...have cleared cookies and all. have run all securities that need running and it shows nothing wrong.
I am getting really, really frustrated.
Can someone help....PLEASE

If you have comcast I have been having the same issue. Comcast has been down in a couple of areas. I am in WA state but have had the same issue.

Do you reboot your computer once a day? Have you run a full virus system scan recently?

yup, just did all the above

Have you installed anything in the last few days?
Or any updates?

Could be as simple as the HEAVY TRAFFIC on the internet with all the shoppers! Some sites have been very slow to load for me and others just gave me the unavailable message.

OK...so is anyone else having problems just going from subject to subject here on quilt board ?
I'm barely getting through

I am not having any problem. Have you tried calling WAVE to see if they are having any issues?

If you don't have these programs, download them (they are freeware) and run a FULL scan with Malwarebytes. Then run CCleaner.
Best I have found so far.

Malwarebytes Anti-malware (Free Version):
http://www.malwarebytes.org/

CCleaner (right side of screen by green download arrow:
http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/

You should see a difference in speed after running these.
