Agreed.
It seems to change, minute by minute and it appears quite unrelated to OS/browser configuration. I've tried various mixes of MS Vista, MS XP (SP2) and Linux with IE7 (MS only), Firefox and Opera - none produce anything like consistent good (or bad) results.

I've been having some internet problems of late and wanted to pass on some reminders to the members that may help solve some of the site's speed issues from the user end.
Clean out your Internet temp files and caches especially if you are using IE. When IE tries to load a page, it searches for a cached page and if it has to go through a zillion GBs of files, it's going to slow things down.
Run a spy-ware/adware/malware scan and don't be afraid to use different programs. I had one nasty trojan that took 8 attempts with a variety software to find it and remove it.
Run a virus scan and make sure you have updated your definitions.
Check your firewall settings to make sure you haven't inadvertently blocked your favourite sites.
If you are running a wireless router/hardware firewall, update your firmware on a regular basis. One sure sign that the router's firmware is out of date is a slow Internet connection. The site will load eventually (after hitting refresh a zillion times) but will kick up a "page not found" error screen when you attempt to changes pages. Running a tracert will show a slow connection and a ping will simply time out.
I had forgotten to update my router firmware and was having frustrating issues loading pages and surfing. Once updated, speed improved and the page errors disappeared.
Hope this helps some of you with your speed and page loading issues.
