The geekzone web pages seems to take ages to load for me... it seems to be stuck waiting for serv.adsimplicity.net
Anyone else having the same problem ?

Yes, noticed that as it started happening, notified the ad agency in charge of this specific ad and it's now fixed on their side.

Thanks... I remember the same thing happened a little while ago with a certain ad with people that had Telstra Clear as an ISP.

I've removed the ad from rotation and notified the server. I won't be running it again until it's proven it's working.

This was confirmed as "fixed" so the ads are running again.

By the way, I have enabled Kontera again on the site. If anyone is browsing Geekzone while not logged in you should see those underlined green items on some pages. Please let me know if the pages hangs while loading on IE 8.
