Mine is more of a cpu problem. I pretty much quit using IE for TOTV because it brings my PC to a halt. And lately, Firefox has not been much better. We need less interactive or animated ads.

I also thought maybe my cpu was overwhelmed. I have a laptop running windows 7 and a desktop still using XP. But, when I installed Adblock plus, as recommended, TOTV works very fast.

I installed Adblock Plus on IE11 and FireFox. Let's see what happens.

I installed Adblock Plus on all three browsers (IE, FireFox, Chrome) and it seems to have fixed my TOTV cpu problem.

Thanks,
