Hm, I'm using Firefox and have no problems. After reading this I tried with Opera 8.5, Netscape 7.2, Netscape 8 and Mozilla 1.7 - no problems either. Page loads very fast in each of this browsers. Maybe it's not the site but something in between? Have you tried Visual Trace Route to check if there are any problems on the route?
