It has been that way for me for about a month.  It slows down, so any operation is nearly impossible.  It always locks up the computer and have to dump the program to get out.  About a week ago, it ran fine for several days.  But now it is again impossible.  Chrome works better that IE, but both exhibit problems.  All other websites work fine as always.

Have you told them about it?  

I haven't had any problems.

Paul, I'm in the same boat with you, except that I use Google for email and Kalmbach.

Trains website may not know of the problem... just posting it here may not alert the people that need to know about it.  One thing you might do is post the complaint and then after it is in the forum, call it up again and click the tiny yellow triangle in the lower left corner to report the thread to the moderators.  Explain that you are just calling attention to the problem and they will contact the IP department to have it looked into.

I am running Winders 10 and IE-11 and have not experienced the problem lately, but I have some systems to eliminate most advertising and the garbage it brings along with it.

Also the audio portion of the ads plays when ever you click on a posting…
Use windows 10 and Kaspersky, but this just started today…copy to Klambach.
 
(wow, what a hard way to get a message to those folks)
Also very slow, and it triggers the “does not have a valid security certificate” warning.

Not to mention that I'm running an outdated Chrome on a Vista machine...

With Windows 7 and IE, all I can do is open the forum.  After that, any operation will cause it to freeze, but it will unfreeze in about a minute or so.  Then with a slight scrolling of clicking to open something, it will freeze again for minute or so.  Basically, it is unusable.  I too get a lot of long running script messages.  Chrome works fine, but maybe a little bit slow at times.  Nothing locks up with Chrome.  This has been my experience starting suddenly about a month ago.

Angela,

The website seems to be better behaved today than yesterday, instead of seeing Firefox suck up 1+GB of memory viewig the website, it's now down to 700MB (still high, but better). Memory seems to be being released now, where yesterday I had to force quit Firefox to clear the memory.

FWIW, running FF 48.0.2 on an almost 9 year old MacBook Pro.

I'm now referring to it as the "Windows 10 virus."  Hearing too many stories about problems that didn't start until people were hit with W10, sometimes against their will.

It has been working for me but always remember, failure is not an option, it comes bundled with Windows.

Problem seemed to come back big time tonight, saw memory usage go up to 3.6GB a few minutes ago, with three tabs. This used up all the free space on an 8GB computer - my first computer max'ed out at 256KB.

FWIW, sees to be better on this go around, but only have one tab open. OTOH Firefox has been showing the "page still laoding circle the whole time.

For a time yesterday afternoon, the site worked perfectly for me, but then the problem returned with slow loadings, long running script error, and locking the computer.  I have Windows 7 in the computer exeriencing the problem.  

I thought this began back maybe 5-6 weeks ago when somebody posted a question asking if the site had been hacked.  At that time, I had noticed that it sometimes took a couple minutes to open the site, and continued loading times were very slow.  Then there was tallk of the site being worked on and people were talking about how ads were popping up differently.  I thought that the site had been intentionally revised in a way that simply would not work with Win 7 and IE, or maybe it was a problem with interacting with just my computer.  Nobody else was mentioning a problem.

About two weeks ago, the problem suddenly cleared and everything ran perfectly for about 3-4 days, but then the problem returned.

Works just fine, never had any problems at all, and I'm way up here in the sub polar region of Northern Saskatchewan. Use iPad, latest version of OS whatever, Safari. Internet comes from my cable company, a province wide company. 7yr old iPad. Battery ain't what it used to be but then neither am I. Run it on power at home.
