I have the same sort of slow navigating on said site with my 4yr old computer. On my Iphone with Tapatalk app, I can fly through the content, but it has its limitations, ie. can't initiate a new thread (can read and comment however). loads of data and Ads over there. I fly under the handle of "mike_r" on that board.

I've only been on it a short time. I see the pop-ups but I haven't had any issues with speed. I'm using Google Chrome to access it
Not to interrupt but...I down loaded Windows 10 from a online notification that it was free and easy to download...after I downloaded it I immediately had problems. I contacted a geek squad and they fixed my computer to the tune of $100+ and they told me I should have had a professional computer guy/business download to prevent virus attachments to the download
Just my 2cents

I use Firefox and I've added Adblock Plus to it and I have no issues at all on that site. I never get pop-ups there (or anywhere else for that matter) and it loads quite quickly.

Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.
I too have had problems with things being a little slow on that site, which is why I started searching and found this one.

IndianaYakFish,
Welcome to the forum; hope you enjoy your stay.
I've checked out the North American tying forum a few times. It's a bit static over there; was hoping for a bit more activity/participation.
Regards,
Scott

I use NAFF as well. I was having some problems and sluggishness with NAFF (and other sites) using Chrome and Firefox and Windows 7. A lot of the problems seemed to be Flash related. However, I have upgraded to Windows 10 and it is much better. NAFF still isn't quite as snappy as this forum, but it's not a problem and I'm not seeing any pop-ups. The Windows 10 up date was very smooth and easy for me and, as mentioned, it significantly improved my web browsing performance.
That's odd. Their general Fly Tying Discussions has 2,424 threads and 32,186 posts...
