Many people here like to embed links in their posts. On too many occassions the web servers these links are pointed at are either extremely slow or sometimes down. Therefore, you can get caught with a page that won't finish loading for a long time or until you hit "stop" so it quits trying to load the images/data from the linked page. Anyone else find this annoying? I'd prefer it if there weren't links to external pages so pages would always load almost immediately.

They may be links to images in the signature. There was some discussion on this before and a partial solution was to ask people to limit their sinature to once per post.

Are you using a Dial up @ 56K??? I hope not.

The pages come right for me, but I am on a Network.
