Thanks Taff, I would appreciate smaller words...go for the ones like and, or, then, it, etc. and I should follow just fine!

BTW Numpty is an northern england word meaning "Someone who has a lot to learn" At least thats the clean definition of the word

Notice I'm routed through sprintlink and you are routed through ATT.

Obviously (to me), there is a problem with ATT and some of the hops before that -- the 200ms ones, for instance.

Those are some strange tracert responses, btw. did you edit them?

It looks like there is a problem in a router on the way to TWF. That's what the pretty asterisks are (timeouts, lost packets, hiccups, delays, blah blah). If you come here through a different route, you will not get stuck at that hop, which explains the difference. I have only today noticed that it's hard to get to TWF -- but nothing like two minutes.

I'm having a few problems once in awhile, but usually the pages are loading within 8 seconds, most of the time within 3 sec. (on a T1 - handly little loading timer Opera has!)

Working just fine for me.
