Is Google being sluggish for any of you? The main site times out sometimes with just a white screen or connection reset in firefox, and it took about 5 attempts to get onto the app status, to then show everything is working fine :dozey:

TIA

Found the problem it was OpenDNS's servers being slow. Switch DNS and all is fine Why didnt i think of that before :dunce:

Was going to say, OpenDNS's "fake" google has been a bit slow of late, easily fixed by editing your option and turning off their "Smart Proxy"

I find browsing google to be a pain in the butthole on VM, constant timeouts to google.co.uk/google.com/google.com/firefox yet at other times they load almost instantaneously.

No problems here, type it in and it's on pretty much as soon as i hit return.

yes indeed I am experiencing the same "effect".. I still havent been able to resolve it with openDNS..

Though I havent seen google slow down, when it is sluggish and the white screens appear, it does tent to get on my rear-end.
