And like your attempts in Windoze, the whole thing - in Konqueror, Opera and Firefox - loads perfectly and very quickly. My ISP is AOL - 2mb broadband, Athlon 2400+ Thoroughbred. As to what's causing your problem, being new to Linux (though a very old hand at the Other OS) I wouldn't hazard a guess. But whatever I hope you soon get it sorted.
