sorry your experience isn't good on dial up (!). the ads can't be removed they fund the site, without them you wouldn't have a site to surf Robert.

Sounds like a problem on your end however as dial up won't effect the speed of flash on a site, once they load once, thats them loaded. Sounds more like either your computer is struggling or you have a problem with the browser. Try another browser to check.

I am on dial up and I use ABP (adblock plus for firefox) and IE7pro for explorer both speed up several sites tremendously. I also use imagepref for firefox which is very handy. It puts a box in the lower right hand corner that you can check or uncheck that will load or unload all images from a site. Its great for just reading forums or news sites or whatever.
