When I click one of the images in your scroller down left (flash, photography) there is a delay of a few seconds before the loading message appears. With the loading message on screen, it takes another ten or so seconds before the section is loaded. Then, when I click the grey button on the right, there is another delay when flash starts to load more data.

I am using Netscape Communicator 4.61, Win 98 and I'm on a 64k ISDN line.
