Trouble loading TAY forums on Windows XP lately?

Anyone on Windows XP have trouble connecting to the forums lately?  For about the last two weeks I haven't been able to.  It stalls and stalls and then says it can't connect.  Tried IE, Firefox, and Chrome.  I can connect to the telemetry page OK, but with a couple glitches, like the purple dots next to each area's name don't load, instead showing a black square with no fill.  But no can haz forums.

On my Windows 7 work computer the forums have never been a problem.

For a while was wondering if my home computer had some issue, but I finally today got around to trying it on another XP computer; same deal.

On my HTC Droid it's usually fine too, but in the past couple days there've been times when it won't load even though it will, at the same time, on Win7.

The computers I use at work are all on XP, I think, and I haven't had any issues. We've had a higher-than-normal number of outages with Dreamhost lately, but they've been for short periods.
