    Is it just me or has the recent addition of the snow flakes on PA taking up too much CPU usuage?

    Im running a single core AMD 64 3200+ (IE7) and whenever I come to PA my CPU usuage is around 60-70+% which makes surfing PA hard....

    This doesnt happen with any other websites i visit.

    anyone else?

    Well... yeah on my computer, the page loading time is kind of slower than before in my opinion.

    anyway,the solution is to use firefox with adblock plus plugin and disable the things that you do not want to see,hope this will help you to speed things up ;)

    fox n no snow issues here.
    but its a snow mod. so it will act up.
    however, for a fix to ie7, try this:

    -Disable Javascript (and other client side scripting)
    -in Internet Explorer you need to select Internet Options from the Tools menu and then go to the Security tab
    -From there you select the zone that you want to disable Javascript for (eg. Internet) and then select Custom Level. Scroll down to the bottom of the list and you will find a section called Scripting and the first option there is labelled Active Scripting
    -Set this value to disable to disable all client side scripting languages including Javascript and then select OK to apply the change (keep selecting OK until all of the dialog windows disappear).
    -To re-enable Javascript return here to select enable.

    Beware, this disables all active scripting for any sites you visit, but i'm sure you already know this.
