Odd google link freeze on IS ?

[timhaak]

Hi

Is anyone else having clinking on links from google search results freeze on IS ?

This has happened before but seemed to go away but is back now. Just checking if anyone else is having the same problem or is it just us ?

If you paste the url in directly it works fine but if you click on the link from the google results it seems to just wait.

Do you Skype installed? Or more specifically, do you have Skype's browser plugin installed? If so, this might be of interest.

I can also confirm that this Skype plugin was slowing down Google on a few computers we had, until we uninstalled it. If it is not that, then I have no idea.

All google sites are super slow or just don't load on my IS account... I have to stop then refresh to get them to work...

Seems to be happening again today

Anyone found a solution to this. Have tunneled to home adsl and it works fine there. So not the browser can only assume IS is doing something dodgy. Anwyone have any ideas or ways around this ?
