I've got a T1 line, opened up their main web page when I saw this post; after ~2min of slowly downloading the page, finally stalled out, IE & Mozilla.

dakota81 - What site are you talking about?
you said it was excrutiatingly slow, but I had never posted a site to check untill after you said that? ? ?

The site I am talking about has NEVER taken that long, except when I was having DNS problems, which are taken care of now.
