There's no proxy, and it happens no matter what site I visit.

Does this happen on particular websites or all websites? Does it happen
to sites at the University? Perhaps the University has a proxy server to
route and control traffic to the Internet. There are some settings for
setting up proxy settings in the IE Internet Options. I am not an expert
in these settings since I have not done this in over 15 years. You might
need to talk to a network administrator on campus to get information for
this issue.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Puzzling Problem with Vista and Web Browsing
Hello all,
I'm running Vista Home Premium and I'm connected to my corporate
university
network via a LAN cable. My puzzling problem is that everything in terms
of
connectivity seems to be working great. I can send and receive e-mail,
chat
on MSN/Skype, download files, etc. The problem however is that when I try
to
browse the web, using both IE7 and FF3.0.5 I think, the pages either
slowly
load or time out after some time. This seems to be a persistent but
random
problem and I'm not sure where to go. The diagnose and repair feature
isn't
helping much (it either says "Windows could not detect any problems with
the
network", or, when pages do time out it says "Windows can't repair the
problem automatically"). Other times, however, web pages load at expected
speeds. I don't have any of this with any of the wireless networks I use
either at home or at a friend's house. Should I speak to someone about
this,
or is this in fact a Vista issue, probably a driver incompatibility, and
I'll just have to wait till 7 comes out? When I briefly tried 7 I don't
recall having any of these problems. All help would be greatly
appreciated
as it's certainly a mystery to me and is indeed frustrating, particularly
if
I need to research something for an assignment or something.
