for the last 3 days the site is painfully slow to get around. It is the same from work or from home and other sites load just fine. What is wrong?

Don't suppose you can post the results of a traceroute?

At the command prompt (DOS prompt) type:
tracert
www.rs246.com > c:\tr_rs146.txt
This may take a while... The when it has finished (i.e. returned to the prompt), send/post the txt file.

It did think for a while than nothing got printed.
Coffe on the keyboard should do the trick......

Nothing is happening with that tracer code. Computers are out to get me.

Nothing will print or show on the screen as the output will go to a text file on your PC called tr_rs146.txt. It will just return to the command prompt once finished.

It will show you the amount of hops from your PC to its destination (
www.rs246.com) and the time it takes between hops, but by they looks of yours Paul you have a DNS problem (did you do this at work ?), as its not able to resolve the name
www.rs246.com to its published IP address. Try
tracert 194.70.50.76 instead [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

You should get something that looks like this:-
C:\>tracert
www.rs246.com
Tracing route to
www.rs246.com [194.70.50.76]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 192.168.0.1
2 16 ms 16 ms 15 ms lo0.plusnet.pth-ag1.plus.net [195.166.128.11]
