Hello All..

Has anyone else noticed that the lookups on most commercial  
sites such as Indigo, Amazon, CanadianTire, BestBuy, etc.. have  
really slowed down?

I use an adblocker. It "counts" the hits that it encounters. The  
3 sites that I mention above consistently reach 20+.  The sites  
are very sluggish to respond until the blocker is finished.

Shopping sites are truly just getting worse and worse in that  
regard.
