Description mi+kde 2004-09-03 05:07:44 UTC
Version:           3.3 (using KDE 3.3.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.2 [FreeBSD] 20040728
OS:                FreeBSD (i386) release 5.2-CURRENT

Although the site is doubtless "optimized for IE", it renders fine with Mozilla.

Konqueror, on the other hand, seems to never be able to catch up with the site's constant self-reloading.

Please describe in more detail what's wrong with the site and its "constant self-reloading". I loaded the page here and it looked just fine.

The site has auto-update mechanism, which reloads the charts and the ads every so often.

Where I am, accessing the site is very slow for some reason (huge latency despite decent bandwidth), and by the time all pictures are loaded, it comes time to reload. But reloading takes just as long, so I never see the page complete -- the rectangle on the left keeps saying "LOADING CHARTS". I'd blame the site, but Mozilla manages to show (and update) it properly. Is Mozilla's caching better tuned?

May be, this is because I have Flash-plugin installed, and it takes a while to load the flash file(s)?

Actually, this morning it is not as bad as last night. May be, a temporary connectivity glitch of some sort...
