I get similar differences in speed as mentioned above. Am on Cable Modem. Sometimes thing load in quickly; other times they can take several minutes. There seems to be no pattern. What I SUSPECT is, that it's due to caching at both 'Rosity and at my cable-providers servers. But that's just a suspicion, I have no proof, either way.. "FAST" = "Full Ahead...STop!!!" Cheers, Diolma
