Thanks for all the replies. I think I've hit on a solution, don't know if it's permanent, but it seems to be working so far.

A guy at work talked to me about this. He asked me how much ram I have, I said 32 MB, he said that's your problem. Today's new computers have 128, 256, 512. So I figured out I could disable some items in my start-up menu that I do not need, such as realplayer, quicktime, aim, msnmessenger, and now my windows load time is almost instantaneous. Once my desktop appears, loading is finished in less than 5 seconds. So far I have been able to access the website in question.

Thanks again. Tell me if this makes sense.
