Whatever it is, I'm sure the powers that be will take care of it. And thanks Don.

LG and BT, Thanks. At least I know now that "the trouble is not with my set..."

Thanks again and Happy New Year.

P.S. wouldn't the warmer syrup flow to more places and get sticky causing even more slow down of the moving parts?

Oh Thank you all!!! I thought I was going mad! Monday and Tuesday extremely slow performance but mostly only at Winni.com, once in a while, yahoo.com was slow. Everything else was fine.

Like you Skipper, my college son (leaves tomorrow and using my computer cause his is packed) got erroneously accused. And I agree about dial-up being faster.

I also ran through all the diags I could think of on my computer to no avail. This morning I had my cable company reset my connection at their end. I was rather emphatic about knowing what I wanted, I must call back and apologize later. Obviously, as I am adding to this thread, the reset didn't help either. I even tried lake.cc (the Carbon Copy alternate site which I guess re-routes back to winni.com but that didn't work either.

Now that I know it isn't me or mine that has the problem, I'll just keep waiting and hoping for a quick resolution.

Hope we all have a healthy New Year.
