Slow?

I see the same thing on my end. I had it REALLY bad last week when it took as long as five minutes for a page to load. All other sites were fine yet nobody else here saw what I was seeing. It seems perhaps there is a non-compatibility issue somewhere with the site and individual users. I am using Windows 7 with Fire Fox BTW with EVERYTHING updated as of a few days ago. Not sure what is going on.
Worldwide has been slow to load. I thought it was just my cell carrier having a burp. Yesterday I got a message in my iPhone 5 with iOS 7 that my phone was configed for 3 by 6 something and couldn't load up Worldwide but loaded other websites with no difficulty at all. So,I erased all my cookies and history and reset my phone. I was able to click on Worldwide again after that.

Actually I reported this thread when I made my post above in hopes Mole would see it. Things seem normal now. A few days ago when it was stoopidly slow my phone worked great while the laptop would not at all.
Think I remember reading about the internet swarm attack by Anonymous just last week. This could be overwhelming servers worldwide by now. Denial of service via this Chinese hacker's attack is still happening?/!
If it was an internet slow down due to a DNS attack then my smart phone should have been as slow as my laptop was I would think but that was not the case a few days ago. I could blaze thru the site on my phone but it took as long as 5 minutes for a page to load on my laptop but ONLY on this site. Everywhere else the laptop worked fine. Too weird.
