GSR ~ I had that problem also till I started cleaning out the cookies when I noted the loads slowing down! Go to "Documents and Settings", "User" (Your Handle on the computer), "Local Settings", and "Temporary Internet Files". Got to "Edit", "Select All" and hit "DETETE". Next time you go to various broswers you my have to reenter your handles as that info is stored there, but I cound never figure out the file name and it really isn't that muck of a problem.
