Ahh... That I did not exactly understand. Will do.


I'm back.

I went to http://www.news.com.au/

I loaded, down the middle -

Razor gang:
Five Charged:
Long Legs:
Naked Ambition:
Scare:
Eviction:
Weather Channel:
Garuda crash:
Secret research:

from the right side -

Movie Mash
Splat
Technology
Ask Bossy
Jack Marx
Fully Chic
Squanderlust
Justin Herald

as quickly as possible and while they were still loading I switched to
Razor Gang, the first page to load, and scrolled up and down with no problems.

That site is very busy with little added things.
