What is taking time to load? The website, Java Player, Flash Player?
In general, usually it would be your internet speed is being slow. Though sometimes it may be your computer itself that is slow.
Could you give us some more info on what is slow and you Operating System, RAM, and Disk Space?

You should go to speedtest.net, and test the speed of your internet connection. Anything above about 2 mB/S should work well enough.

Well, what speed did your test give you, and (like Magnie said), what do you think is taking a while to load?

Could you explain what is being slow?
Usually when you just barely start up your computer, the computer is still starting up even after you login. So that could be a potential reason why.

i believe thats it but could Deviant Art be a factor. It has mature content and i used to go on it but now i feel guilty so i quit. Do u think that could be too? i wasnt looking at mature stuff but could the site be a factor?

booting up my PC
That would be an Operating System problem. It may also be because you don't have enough Disk Space or RAM. Your CPU may also need an upgrade.
What OS are you using? Windows, Mac, Linux?

IE can be run on Mac as well.
Programming is an art...
Goodbye, Scratch. I am leaving because of the exams coming up at our school, though I'll check the forums once or twice a week.

I don't think this is a Scratch-related question
It was up until the topic went from the Scratch website loading slowly to the computer being slow.
Also, if you have a solid state drive, DO NOT DEFRAGMENT IT, or you could destroy it, because of memory wear. Defragmenting writes to some parts several thousand times.
