For a couple days now, while only ebay pages are open, using Firefox, I've been getting this message:
"A web page is slowing down your browser. What would you like to do? Stop it (or) Wait"
Some ebay pages are taking a very long time to load.
Anyone else?

I don't use Firefox, but on Internet Explorer I find that waiting for all the advertisements on the right-side of the eBay screen to load are definitiely slowing down my load time. The site is so loaded up with ads now, it is making eBay harder and harder to be efficient either in buying or selling. I realize all this adds to eBay's bottom line, but at what expense? I am beginning to think that eBay is more interested in adding to their advertising revenue then in servicing their sellers & Buyers!! It is looking more and more like a SPAM SITE!

Yes, I'm absolutely having slow webpage loads, and only on Ebay. This has been going on for 2+ weeks now. Scroll through the other posts in this forum, and you'll see that you're clearly not alone.

Same here... my "purchase page" can take 5 minutes or more to load while stopping all other browser pages from loading; whethere eBay or not unless I click stop on Firefox notice that "a web page is slowing down your browser".
Originally I though the ad blocking within Firefox was the issue, but turned that off and the same. So, I turned off flash, which is where the placement for ads was showing and that did not help. So, I went to eBay controls and once again tried to turn off the insidious reminders that consume the right 1/3 of the page, but that has never stopped them for the past year. But, while I was there, I also turned off the email reminders that are sending hundreds of emails per day to remind you that you are the high bidder, but bid soon... lol ... and they have not slowed down.
....We no longer sell on eBay, but rather a buyer because when people cannot place bids, the seller is losing money; about the time you click to make a bid, sometimes you beat the right side reminders and sometimes not and wind up on a different page. And then there is waiting and waiting for some pages to load. Thus, we are using bidding tools more and more to avoid this ongoing nonsense of software with a mind of it's own. It eliminates the reminders in the right column and saves deleting hundreds of emails each day.... thankfully, government is not yet taxing emails. 🙂

Yes, I use Firefox as well and having the same problem/message. Each time I try to open my "watched items list" (and only on the watched items list) it appears. It asks if you want to stop it or wait, but does not respond to either option, so you have to wait anyway. This has been happening for quite a while now. VERY frustrating!

Talk about annoying, what a waist of time this is, have reported to ebay for No action.
Only on Purchase Page, Links stop working, everything, then works for 5 seconds, then back to
"a web page is slowing down your browser"
eBay only worry about what they want to if they think it will make them more money, you gotta love it
eBay in Australia is the only online company portal not offering some sort of credit when you buy, ie buy now, pay later, what do you reckon that's doing to sellers.
HELLO, ANYBODY HOME
LOL
