For some reason, when I go to certain sites (RapBasement (http://board.rapbasement.com/) and eBay (http://www.ebay.com) being the most common) they will load up very slowly, around 5 minutes for a page on RapBasement and it can be as long as 10-15 minutes on eBay. I use Mozilla. I thought using IE on these sites would fix this problem, but it doesn't help. Occasionally they will load at a normal speed, but as far as I can tell, this is random. I tried rebooting, but it didn't do much.

Anyone experience this, or know of a fix? Thanks

Sounds like you need some computer technical help (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=techhelp).

you actually sit and wait 10 to 15 minutes for the page to load?

extensions like single window or tabbed browser preferences fix this. search around for them.

If I left click on a link, it will open a new window. If I click the scroll wheel in the middle of my mouse, I open the link in a new tab(as far as I know, this was automatic, and I didn't change any settings for this.)

I looked around in the settings, but I couldn't really find anything to open links in new tabs.

You can right click and select 'open in new tab', or you can change what mouse button does what in some settings somewhere. I dont' remember where, but I looked it up and did it previously
