How long does it take for the adobe website to pull up for you all.

For the past several months, everytime I go there and I mean every single time no matter what computer I use, it can take up to 10 minutes for the site to load. Forget downloading anything.

Anyone know why this is?

4 sec. My PC copes with Shock wave and Flash well. 6MB download speed doesn't hurt either.

Uhhhhhhh.... I forgot

About one second, actually when I clicked it, the page was already loaded for me.

Firefox says 7.09 over an ad-hoc wifi network that cost £16 to set up. And that's starting with no wifi in either computer.


Since the other one was scaring you guys so much...

I have a broadband connection and I can download a 2 hour movie in 40 minutes. But Adobe.com and downloading anything from microsoft.com takes hours upon hours.

Adobe has a horrible server for its forums, and just a horribly written forum altogether.
