What exactly is widget.adrianflux?
Whatever it is, when I open a classified ad and try to scroll down quickly, the whole thing goes a bit broken - screen blanks, the advert disappears, that kind of thing. It always says at the bottom of the screen it's waiting for Adrian Flux's widget.
I could get an insurance quote out of them quicker than it takes to get an advert to reload after they've widget'ed it.
Computers, pah.

On some of the classified ads (such as this one: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1319155.htm) there is a box which allows you to get a pretty much instant insurance estimate from Adrian Flux.

It should not be slowing the whole site down, although it is possible that they were having some server issues which could have caused a temporary problem.

If you see it happening again then let me know and I'll see what I can do.

I will get someone to have a look at our end and see what the problem is.

Just tried again on a few classifieds to make it mess up and failed - couldn't see any Flux adverts tho'.
If it does do it again, I'll note the ad number down and post it back here.
