Certain websites loading slow?

Question

My default browser is Mozilla Firefox v 2.0.0.3 and sometimes IE7

Most of the sites I visit uploads quickly/instantly

My browsers cache, cookies, history are always cleared upon closing

I have a cable connection

The websites I'm currently having trouble with are www.youtube.com and www.facebook.com
-For youtube, there is a somewhat lengthy delay before the webpage uploads. Not that big of a problem but I was just wondering why it's taking my computer a while to load it while my friend's computer can load it instantly

-For facebook, I have to browse the website at a certain time in order to load the site normally. Most of the time, all the links I click on tries to load the page but never does at all. Under the status bar, it says "waiting for...(website)" and remains like that forever.

This happens on both Mozilla and IE7

Answer 1

It's not your PC or Browsers. Both of these sites are extremely popular. They're so busy that it's hard to connect during the day and weekends are the worst.

Try going there between 7 AM and 9 AM you will connect almost instantly.

TIP: Hit the Refresh Button every few seconds to sneak past others.

Answer 2

Demand on a certain sites server can not be speeded up if traffic to that site is heavy, most people think they need faster computers or more memory to have faster internet, it is none of the above, internet is just like any other communication it has peek and slow times, ever notice late at night your computer runs faster? People are in bed, unless its friday night, or lunch time etc.
