&gt; the problem seems to be fixed.

&gt; &gt; I have noticed the DNS slowdown as well.  I have statically entered my
&gt; &gt; network information for now.  First I was using what seemed to be the Miami
&gt; &gt; DNS server, that too seems to bog down occasionally.
&gt; &gt; Since that I've started to use a completely different DNS server that I am
&gt; &gt; not at liberty to disclose.  With the bellsouth DNS servers I've even had
&gt; &gt; sites the refuse to resolve at all, even with the delay.
&gt; &gt; I live on the south side of town if that makes any difference.  Not sure of
&gt; &gt; the CO.
