It might be your computer. This site requires updated flash stuff.
Well, that and a decent modem speed.

Great! Blame the supposedly welcome and would-be customer...

While he could have been more tactful, he is right. The pop-up is annoying, and
websites that require the user to have the newest software and/or hardware are
poorly designed.
My initial experience (dialup/windows 98/newest version of flash)...
It takes me a little over 2 minutes from the time the pop-up comes up to the
time the loading graphic appears, if I’m doing nothing else over the connection.
If you can’t speed this up, you should have a warning in your main warning that
it could be several minutes before the ‘loading’ text appears in the new window.
After clicking on ‘Medieval Weapon Set’, I get the loading image graphic... and
that is all. Wait awhile, nothing happens. Go away after 20 minutes, come back
2 hours later, and its still loading the image.
After trying some other things, I eventually discovered that some of the images
will not display for me until I click on “View Details”/”See Insitu”. Once I
figured this out, and started clicking on “View Details”/”See Insitu” regularly,
it took only about 10 seconds per image, which is much more reasonable.
