Just thought I'd add a note to this... I tried refreshing a web page
repeatedly with my main PC with the NVIDIA firewall, then did the same thing on
another computer (same speed), and it refreshed *much* faster than the one with
the NVIDIA firewall :( Any ideas (other than disabling the firewall which I'm
inclined to do)? Thanks,
