In Windows (since you are also using IE, unless you're on a Mac) open up a command prompt (probably under your accessories somewhere) and type:
tracert www.thedomainname.com where www.thedomainname.com is the site's full address. If the things times out without resolving, you have an issue with DNS. If not, and you see anything over 1000 ms or little astericks, you know that the routing on the internet is weird at that time for you. The tracert (trace route) command is wonderful for this. It shows you where the little packets of information are getting stuck on the internet. Give it a try now to see how it's supposed to work.
