Yeah same here as well, definitely not as snappy as it used to be.

The Geekzone Gadget is probably stuck because it tried to access the server around 8am when we restarted to apply security patches released today.

aaarrrrgghhhh!!!! Geekzone has become painfully slow again over the past few days.
it appears it is again getting stuck on the adservers - but I could be wrong and it might just be general slowness.
Took me damn near ten minutes to locate this thread then get in to put a reply.
