This is often a symptom of a bad DNS setup.
Try this: pick a web site that often locks up. I'll use www.sun.com
as an example. Run the nslookup command, "nslookup www.sun.com".
This should come back immediately. If not, you're using a bad DNS
server. Edit /etc/resolv.conf to fix it. (Somebody else who
uses USWest could tell you what's in their /etc/resolv.conf.)
If nslookup is fast, but netscape is still slow, then you have some
other problem.
