hmmmm
i think Generally long load times, opposed to internet connectivity problems, are caused by insufficient memory (so check memory use in Task Manager) or a failing hard drive or intermittent network adapter (so run HDD manufacturer diagnostics and when it won't load pull up a command prompt and check "ipconfig /all" and traceroute something common like "tracert google.com".
