Thanks

I suspect the logo found on the bottom right of each page provides a clue. 
;)

Honestly though, I believe all the inefficient JavaScripts, inline frames, 
plugins, ads, and Quirks mode are causing the slowness.  While visiting the 
site, if you right-click and "Validate" each page, you'll see plenty
of 
errors.  Secondly, if you "View Source", you'll see that the majority
of the 
content derives from JavaScripts.

For a performance boost, see if adding the following to Opera's Preferences>

Advanced tab> Content> Blocked content list helps any:

http://secure.audienceprofiler.com/*
http://msn.foxsports.com/fe/js/SectionFront/msn_survey.js
http://msn.foxsports.com/fe/js/hbx.js
http://*.rad.msn.com/ADSAdClient31.dll*
http://ad*.msn.com/library/dap.js

Enjoy.

That's seems to have fixed it..  Can go back almost instantly now.

Thanks
