Your luck just got worse, as I did exactly the same thing you did for this post and it took about .5 seconds to download.

I do know that there are times when a page takes forever to load, but it is ANY page on any site. In my personal experience, it is an ISP bottleneck.

When it gets backed up, switching to a different browser accomplishes nothing, and my e-mail download will also move like cold molasses.

But I promise I won't say it's your ISP!
