Firefox keeps timing out


Recommended Posts

Every time I'm on Neowin a window pops up telling me that "the operation timed out when attempting to contact ads.neowin.net". It's incredibly annoying because it pops up every 10-15 seconds, even after I've stopped the page from loading :blink: I don't have any kind of adblock installed, I've tried clearing the cache and my cookies, and uninstalling hasn't worked either. This just started happening today - it was working fine yesterday. I'm using 1.0.7 without any extensions. Can anyone help?

I think their's some kind of problem with their ad server or whatever.. I got this to, although in Opera you don't get that annoying pop-ups :p Take a day off from Neowin and you'll see it will be working in the morning ;)

i HATE those ads at the bottom of the page. it seems they are prime reality for websites to place adds there. On one forum I go to (which I don't anymore just because of those ads) the ads are videos and there are actual conversations that go on for about 5 minutes. It's annoying as all hell....i hope neowin NEVER does something that horrible.
