Another problem I found on my system that produced similar slow down effects was related to having 2 network interfaces. I have an ethernet card, and a USB wireless connection, and by mistake I had got both active on the same subnet, but the ethernet was not woking due to lack of a connecting cable. It is quite impressive that packets got out at all, but each new connection took some time to start up. Hope my mistakes help someone.

Anyone know why name resolution using my cable provider's nameservers is impossibly slow on a standard untweaked 8.2 install, but quite fast with WinXP on the same machine, same provider, same nameservers?
