Okay, I finally got around to playing with it some more. I eliminated all the product images on the home page, and got the page size down to 40K. If anything, it seems to be taking longer now! About 17 seconds this morning.

Same deal as before, initial page load is very slow-no matter what the page is. After the first page loads no problem at all on my website site with the rest of the pages. The problem is only after you open a new web browser and directly type in the address for my website or click on a link from a search engine. Again, after you initially "connect" to my website, it works great. For testing, I keep closing the web browser, and clearing the history.

Really appreciate any ideas of what it could be!!!
