Don't touch your DNS server!
www.infodish.com resolved within less than 2 seconds on our system. And,
it should take almost exactly the same amount of time to do a DNS lookup of
the A record of www.infodish.com as for the MX record of infodish.com.
The one thing that I *did* notice is that when I telneted to
www.infodish.com on port 80, your WWW server almost immediately tried
connecting to the WINS server on the computer I was running. That could be
part of the problem. You should definitely know why that is
happening. That's considered very impolite. The problem may be, for
example, that with the DSL/T1 connection, you have a firewall that prevents
WINS access and drops the packets, so your web server is waiting for the
results before sending/finishing the web page.
