konqueror web browsing


I've been browsing the site allmusic.com but the performance is extremely slow. I have dsl so I'd expect page loads in seconds not minutes. I get this performance only at this site and its been going on ever since I started using suse 9.0. I thought it was the network or their server, but when I switch my internet connection over to my pc, it runs extremely fast (secs). Does anybody have any ideas? I don't know where to begin. J

Took 2-3 seconds for me to open that page, using a T1 connection and Mozilla Firefox. If I was you, I'd use another browser. Konqueror is supposed to be a file manager and it's performance (and ugly shortcuts) make it a bad browser... seriously. Give firefox a shot

ya, when I use mozilla, it loads with no problem. its weird because konqueror works great with all sites except allmusic.com. I prefer konqueror, so if anyone has any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated.
