Anyone else having a problem with MS.NOW online freezing? [View all]

MS.NOW apparently was moved to a different online hosting service than MSNBC, and the first thing I noticed was that the audio was bad — lower volume and lower quality than before. But it didn't take long to find that a bigger problem is that I can't keep a connection very long before it freezes and usually doesn't recover without a reload. Is anyone else seeing that, or is it a problem with my ISP?
