I have had a couple notes today from readers who report that the blog is hanging or crashing.
Anyone having problems? Lemme know what’s going on.

"But if, in any layman who is indeed imbued with literature, ignorance of the Latin language, which we can truly call the 'catholic' language, indicates a certain sluggishness in his love toward the Church, how much more fitting it is that each and every cleric should be adequately practiced and skilled in that language!" - Pius XI
"Let us realize that this remark of Cicero (Brutus 37, 140) can be in a certain way referred to [young lay people]: 'It is not so much a matter of distinction to know Latin as it is disgraceful not to know it.'" - St. John Paul II
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

I haven’t had any crashes…yet, but it is allowing me ample opportunity to grow in patience. That is, it’s being slow.
No issues or problems encountered.
May His Holy Name be praised this day!
Terribly slow and unresponsive; took me 5 mins to post this reply! But then it might be my steam-driven machine… E
APX: I noticed it was a little slow.
Wouldn’t load and would crash my browser when using Windows IE8. Loads fine using Firefox.
the blog is hanging using Internet Explorer —- however works fine when I go to my Mac and use Safari.
I was looking at the blog last night and it crashed my iPad several times, and took a very long time to load the page, which has gotten very heavily laden of late. I think the extra complication of the Facebook Like widgets may be part of the issue, but it also may have had to do with the Santorum post videos, the second of which failed to load. Here are some of the errors and warnings from a Safari diagnostic report on the main page load:
[I cut the rest of this… but thanks. Helpful.]
Works fine also with Firefox and Chrome and Opera.
It’s the darn IE again.
The pages for site had been taking a much greater time to completely download these past few days…much longer than normal. Could this possibly have anything to do with one or more of the ‘add-ons’ or links that appear in the right hand column?
Yes Father, this is the first time all day I’ve been able to get here! It hung up and wouldn’t respond. And I had no problems anyplace else; even those secular-liberal places!
Yes, this is my first successful time in today. Using IE8, the page would turn faded gray and not respond.
Yes, I had a lot of trouble getting here. It kept completely freezing my screen and then would not even close. I was beginning to be afraid Social Security had blocked it. (work server is the SSA computers in Baltimore, so that your site meter shows someone from Baltimore on the site even though I am in NY.)
It is true they use an older version of IE here. But last week, I got on here fine with this browser on this server.
Hope this was just today.

I have not experienced any problems at all recently.
Crashed IE 3 times while trying to read your blog at lunch break. :O Now that I’m back at home on Firefox it’s just fine.
Works fine with my Firefox Mozilla. No problems today.
FYI, I installed Ad Block for use with Firefox browser and which you recommended. It is working GREAT!
No problems with Firefox 9.0.1 and Mac OS X 10.7.2.
Yes, earlier the page wouldn’t load at all with Internet Explorer, unless I clicked on InPrivate Filtering first. It was better with Firefox. However, I have been having problems with my internet connection in general so I am glad to see that this was not an isolated occurrence. The page loaded fine just now with IE and no InPrivate Filtering, so maybe the problem is resolved for the time being.
I couldn’t get in earlier today. Explorer 8.
No problem with Chrome.
IE 8: have had problems with the home page not loading. I have only been able to get to your site by “sneaking in” from a link to your latest post on another blogger’s page.
Sorry about the problems with IE. I haven’t been able to make IE do what is described. Grrr.
It has been very slow to download for several days with Internet Explorer — sometimes freezes, but I got in just now quickly with Firefox. My e-mail, etc. is all at IE though, so Firefox is not my first choice.
No problems on my end. Using Firefox and Mac OSX 10.5.8.
Btw…IE should be banned to the ends of the earth. Just sayin’.
Seems fine on Firefox, on a Mac running 10.7.2.
However, earlier today I looked on my iPhone and it only wanted to show me two stories – wouldn’t scroll down more than that.
Oops, sorry, running Google Chrome, not Firefox. (I use Firefox at work).
Crashed my IE. Was able to get on with Chrome after rebooting.
oops – failed to add that it happened yesterday
This is my first time in a couple of days being able to load it, also (I’m also using IE 7, I believe). I was starting to go through WDTPRS withdrawl! :-)
I couldn’t get you this morning, but all is well this evening.
unusually slow and hanging in safari this afternoon. seems okay now but loads slower than it used to.
Leaving reply, Chrome at 19:36:30, CST.
Leavinf reply, IE8 at 19:39:00 CST
Was experiencing consistent freezing of iPod Touch Safari the day the “Share” buttons were installed. Switched to the web app enabled version and that only loaded correctly about half the time. Tonight it appears the share buttons are gone (or are different) and it’s working well either way on the iPod Touch, as well as the laptop version of Safari. Load speed at 9 PM EST seems just fine. Pretty zippy, in fact.
Yes! Crashed my iPod touch several times lately, not just today. No problems on the state of the art pc in the office. Same wireless connection for both.
Cannot get on through Explorer at all. This began about 2 weeks ago but prior to that it was very slow opening. Tried it today again and same thing.
I got in now but earlier it crashed my internet.
It seems to work fine on my iPhone.
No problems that you mentioned, but most of the pics you post rarely show up in your articles.
Had problems with IE8 hanging. Works fine on Firefox. Earlier today, my Ipod touch could load wdtprs.com but then it would crash the internet and completely clear the browser when it went to redirect to wdtprs.com/blog – haven’t checked if it’s still doing it.
The only problem I have had is with the Santorum/Colmes videos. The first did not load at all and the second collapsed in process. I finally searched it on Youtube and was able to watch it there. Otherwise no problems.
Since yesterday – freeze; couldn’t close; had to shut down the computer a couple of times. I have Internet Explorer. It has been extremely slow in loading for some time now. Seems o.k. this evening.
My explorer crashed whenever I visited this blog, and that would freeze up my computer. I’d have to go into ‘task manager’ to shut it down. (Not a big deal: just reporting facts.) I think that it started last night, and continued all day today. If a certain Notre Dame prof was young enough to know that ‘hack’ can apply to computers as well as expectorations, he’d be my prime suspect.
No major speed/loading issues here with Firefox. BUT– perhaps I should have noticed this earlier and just didn’t, I don’t know– the right column section highlighting recent comments on posts is gone with the wind. And the icon of the Madonna and Child (Perpetual Help?) has become most oddly colored– mother and child are quite dark-complected, and Jesus is wearing a fetching PINK gown.
Yesterday for me it was not possible to load your blog.
After 2 crashes I gave up.
Today it is fine.
Dieter Philippi.
Slow on my Android phone, but no problems on IE6 at work (well other than a few alignment issues I have come to expect). Chrome was working ok last night UK time.
I thought the icon was supposed to have Jesus wearing pink and a Black Madonna. Is it not?
Couldn’t access from work on IE on 1/3, but could access elsewhere on both Firefox and Silk. I thought it might be a new firewall setting at work, but it didn’t hit other blogs, so I guess it wasn’t firewalled.
I’ve had some problems on Safari. Seems that when I come on the home page after posting a comment, where I type in the Web address, the arrow next to RSS kept ‘spinning’, then would become an arrow again.
Today it’s much better. Maybe because there’s not so polls and other things at the top of the homepage.
Never had a crash, thank God!
Should have added, ‘not so MANY polls and other things’.
Sigh. Another case of ‘read before posting’.
I think I’m losing my mind…..
