website trouble

Been having quite a few troubles with this website in the last few days...

Pages never seem to load properly - and this is the only site I am having troubles with.

Have to refresh, usually twice, sometimes up to 4 times before the page fully loads.

Made any changes recently? ... my comp doesn't like it. Using IE6.

Re: website trouble

IE6 is too old, you really need to use Firefox 3.5 or if you must IE8. The web moves on but old browsers don't wink

Re: website trouble

...says the man with the Flash ad!

That's been the only change - a new ad on every few page impressions. Check your flash player - try updating it. On the road at the moment so don't have access to an IE6 instance to try it out.

If it's an option - upgrade to FireFox - it is a better browser in my opinion.

Edit - if it's a few people having problems - please post here and I will look into it...

Re: website trouble

Try to update your flash, If it still persists, it may be wise for Ben to take the ad down and I'll do a new ad.

Re: website trouble

I'm getting the same problem with IE6 and XP.

Basically, whenever the copper add comes up, the page doesn't completely load. If you keep refreshing the page, it loads correctly when the add is not a copper bullion ad.

Re: website trouble

I think ozcopper purposely created this fuss to draw attention to his advertisement...

Just kiddin. (only in Hollywood)

But it is some good promotion!
