Drupal 6.x

Drupal 6 :
The administration menu is not displayed on the frontpage

How can I delete all entries / comments (mostly spam, about 120.000) of all users besides of the ones of one user (me, having the first account in Drupal) in a single step?

I have noticed one thing that if I comment below line in node.module file:
$output .= node_view(node_load($node->nid), 1); (line no: 1778)
web page loads very fast.

With above line, page takes 14.36 Seconds to load. And after commenting above line page takes 1.99 Seconds to load. This happens with any URL of the site because this line is executed every time when a page is loaded. Site has been developed using Drupal 6.

Please let me know if anybody faced same issue or any other input.

I've tried "everything" before making this post so hopefully I either missed something easy and i'm going to feel dumb, or something is screwed up.

I'm working with Drupal 6, php 5.3.1, and mysql 5.1.41

To start i have a live site and a dev site. The live site was being updated without changes being made to the dev site and the goal was to get the dev site up to date with the live site and start using it as intended.

I first backed up of the files and data for both sites, i then wiped out the dev site, installed the lampp for linux version that's currently installed on the live server and copied all of the relevant files into the base directory.

I then created a new empty database and ran install.php, when it completed i can view the drupal site as normal and access the admin pages etc. I then put the site in maintinance mode and imported the live database. After the databse is imported every page i try to view redirects me to the live site.

I've tried changing the htacess file, manually emptying the database cache files, checked the settings file for a base url, and checked the modules for secure pages (it's not installed).

I've tried running update.php after the database is installed, i've also tried using the non-cleaned links http://www.dev.com/?q=user to get to the admin page, but every page i go to redirects to the live site.

I'm trying to sort comments in a D6 forum tread, but I can't get them to display in the correct order. I think everything looks correct in the database ( http://i.imgur.com/IwwTIRg.png ) but the comments are still not lined up by timestamp or thread fields.

Modules: Advanced Forum, Flatcomment. Cache is cleared
