Whilst waiting for web pages to become active, the bar at the bottom says things like "wating for twitter things" or lines containing adserver names.
Sky sports web site must take 15 seconds before my mouse will work again and if you try to scroll the page it takes a second or two to catch up - very frustrating!!
I run a Dell Dimension 2600 to watch Sky Go
Celeron 2.6 with 512mb memory.
XP Home Edition
I have the same problem with the Sky page, they just have too many Flash items running on that page

The rest of the Internet I find pages load fine, but like I said above I run FireFox with the add ons that stop the Ads and crap being downloaded unless you give the browser permission to dwnload them.
The add on's can be annoying to start with, as you learn which things you would like downloaded and which you don't, but once you get used to them they are great. and you only get the bits of the pages that you want and not all the junk.
