Please don't tell me the answer is Chrome Hilarious! I don't have this problem on any other site, just ATP.

Win7 Home, Cable modem, Firefox 10.0.2, Avast anti-virus and Comodo firewall.

I've rebooted my PC a couple times in the last couple days, and it hasn't made a difference. No other site takes as long to load new pages as ATP does. Using the "one one thousand two one thousand.." method of counting time, it took THIRTY-SIX SECONDS to open a new page that wasn't cached. Cached pages open in 3 seconds or less.

At first, I thought it was just database image pages, but it's new forum topics as well. If it's not cached, it takes so long to load that I think it's not doing anything.

it's never been like this in the past, and I swear it just started in the last 2 days or so.

Two questions -- is it running slow like this for anyone else? Any suggestions on what to do? I'll reboot the cable modem and router if I have to, but if it's only one site having issues, it's hard for me to think it's related to the cable modem or the router.

I'm going to retire and live off of my savings. Not sure what I'll do that second week.
