Yes I see that happening to my browser as well. I believe it's doing that on purpose; waiting for you to click a button or post in the software category or something...(hehe)

Is it freezing solid and shows nothing ever, or does it just take several seconds to show you what it loaded?

If it is the "slow to show, but shows eventually" as mentioned in example 2, then that is normal. It is just formatting to your screen and or settings.

If it goes to 100% and says done, then never shows anything, you may want to reload IE with the latest version and updates.

Hope it helps.

Are you running any progams like AD Subtract, which I find gives me a 5-10 second delay even on cable.

Could also be your antivirus software, what are you using and what settings are you using?
