You might need to delete your temporary internet files and restart the browser. I've had problems getting to certain sites and that sometimes solves them.

Horizon Hobbies website has always loaded very slow for me. So much so that I have become so frustrated that I either delayed my purchase or gotten it somewhere else. I really don't see how you can be effective with an online busines with slow servers. Pissed off customers don't generally buy alot of stuff.[:@]

It must be my provider ATT because I tried deleting my temporary internet files on this computer, tried on my other pc and laptop and they all said it was unavailable. Why doesn't this surprise me ? Last week ATT switched everyones telephone number in my daughters neighborhood and when she called to report her phone was out they told her the problem has to be in her house and they would charge $55 for the 1st 15 minutes to come out and find the problem. (My daughter lives 1/2 mile away) So she has been without phone and internet service since last Thursday. I guess shes lucky to have her cell with Verizon.

Speed
3.1 megabits per second
Communications 3.1 megabits per second
Storage 378 kilobytes per second
1MB file download 2.7 seconds
Subjective rating Awesome
It's not me...
I just tried the site again it took twenty seven seconds for the page to load. Tower takes about three seconds.
Am I just being impatient?

The problem must of been in my router or modem. I went over to my daughters today and tried to go to the site on her compuer and it loaded right away. I came home and disconnected my modem and router and reconnected them a minute later and now I can get on to the Horizon site. Both my wife and myself had noticed lately there were different sites that wouldn't load, but now they're back.
Thanks for the suggestions.
