Try rebooting your modem and router.

Another thought... It could be that their servers OR webhosts are busy.

i have rebooted my modem and i dont think that the servers or web hosts are busy because when i boot to my other hdd the speed is faster and i can go to usps site

Their site popped up fine for me, so it's most likely not on their end. Good luck. :toast:

Try a system restore to a date before it started to get slow.

Hmmm... my roomie the same issue; IE will render the page and THEN show it, giving the appearance that it's running slow, but DL stuff at 1.07MB/s It took a re-instal to fix it a little. Maybe it's the SP3 beta?
