Hello all,
I recently posted a thread on this topic and didn't really get a response. Safari STILL hangs on all secure servers. It has gotten so bad, that I use IE for all secure transactions. Sometimes it can take as long as 5 MINUTES just to load a secure page. Is there a problem with Java? Bad version of Safari? Sites like Gmail won't even load, my bank website takes so long that sometimes the server times out. I've tried everything, re-installing Java, Safari and re-formatting my HDD. I even installed 10.3 on my external LaCie HDD and after a while, the lagging started again! I thought it might have been Airport, so I connected my Pismo to the ethernet and STILL no difference.
Could this be one of the first signs of a G3 not being up to par for OS X? My grandma has the 17" flat panel iMac with an 800Mhz G4, 256 RAM and her software is up to date like my Pismo and while there is a slight hang, it's never longer than 10 seconds.
At a lose here folks. I love Safari and want to keep it as my default browser, but if Apple doesn't fix this problem I'm going to have to switch to either Opera or Netscape. Thanks for any input. My only other possibility is Earthlink, but talking to their customer service is like calling SBC. My system: Pismo G3/500, 1gig RAM. All software up to date.
