Pages taking ages to load

[pheonix_2008]

I spoke to an agent on eBay chat yesterday to report that eBay pages take ages to load. I sent him 4 screenshots of the 'waiting for (various)' messages that are displayed in the bottom lefthand corner of my screen and I have added one of those to this post. He told me not to worry, that is was probably a temporary problem. But I said I will worry, when it prevents me badding on items because the page won't finish loading and all my tabs are locked! I also told him that pages do not take ages to load on any other site I use, like Amazon, Wilkinsons, Boots, Tescos, Asda etc. But he still insisted that it was nothing to do with a problem on eBay and that  it was due to malware affecting my computer! 

I have since run full scans on all my disks including removable drives, with McAfee Total Security and, just as I suspected, it found NO THREATS - not even PUPS. And funnily enough, none of the help pages or community pages have taken ages to load as I am writing this.... So it only seems to be affecting items for sale pages? Correction, it does not affect help or community pages - but it does affect My eBay all lists!

I run Windows 10 on my 6 month old, fairly high spec computer and use Google's Chrome browser which I updated yesterday.
