DynamiteData is slowing me down

[Jeff7]

Same here. I also get slowdowns from dynamic.anandtech.com.

I notice it most when perusing the HOT DEALS section.

Can you redirect dynamitedata.com to 127.0.0.1 in the C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file without any adverse effects? I've done that with tribalfusion.com in the past with some success, but I'm not sure if it would work with this site.

So far so good...

Wow...finally found this was a problem slowing down the site for me for a long time. Just added it to my host file.
