I've noticed how slow eBay seems to be these days -- pages take a very long time to load.
I happened to load tcpdump and saw that eBay pages seem to be served from Akamai servers -- which I know are rate-limited by PN for at least download purposes.
I realise that the PN rate-limiting techbology should only affect downloads but wondered if there might be a connection?
Be interested to hear any comments by networks staff

Every browser has had security issues at one time or another. IE is well known for its vulnerabilities and Firefox isn't immune either - see here.
As always, you need to keep up with the latest updates to make sure you're as secure as you can be!
