Pleasures' all mine Caro.

Have to say I forgot about this, it is something you can do on firefox too, and all my machines were updated this way too..

Well spotted, I think there are some other hacks as well that help, to do with image processing and things I will see if I can find them

Glad someone else found it sooo slow ( I thought IE was slow). I had cleaned, scanned....Finally after messing with it decided it did not like me or my machine & took it off.

I put it back on & did the steps listed & it did help a bit.
Now I just hope Ed shows us how to get rid of all the unwanted stuff - at least I did get rid of the 3 tabs it opened every time. YEAH!
I will just wait & see how it works.

yes, actually it is really slow... I am going to try those tips, hope they help, since I have a 10MB connection and it works just like 4MB with Flock...

Thumbs up thank you thank you thank you!

See - it just shows how much better it was to SEARCH for a thread about slow flock first rather than just post a question (like I almost did!)
Truly - it was going like a very old dog before, and I was having some doubts, but now... so much happier!
Thanks for finding the answers and posting!

Thank you for the speed up fix. I did it on Firefox too. What a difference.
Who knew?

I like Flock very much, I can't wait to see what all it will actually do, but I am very happy with this little tip. This is the reason to hang out in the forum. There are an awful lot of really smart people in here. Thank you! Susan
