The only reason I could think that makes your wordpress slow is because of your host. :\

I moved to Host Monster. (http://hostmonster.com) I have had 0 problems, and you get to use cpanel.
It could be dot5. Dear God I hated them so much.

oh really? haha why??? I might see how you could because I signed up anotehr account you have to activate everything and my php wouldn't work and I canceled that account because it was so dumb. I don't really care about vdeck or cpanel cuz I use dreamweaver but yeah I want to switch pretty soon once I get some $$$ lol!

btw I need to know if it's safe to be with an older version? I got it to be faster now but it's an old one :/

its not really safe in my opinion because the newer version is updated, in case the older version had some bugs or something. Sometimes the older version isn't safe enough.

With Dot5, I wanted to have a subdomain, and you had to ask them and go through all this crap.
And when I canceled my account, they still kept billing me. It was a mess.

oh really that sucks!!

Do you think if I upgrade and my site is still a little slow, if I give a notice would it be ok? because I think there some bugs with the new one.

Ask dot5 if they know why it is slow
they might say its your computer.
