That setting already was set to true, but it made no difference.

A little late now, but someone earlier pointed out that IPv6 DNS can
cause issues because of incomplete support for it.

With mozilla-based products you can set a configuration parameter (in
firefox, type 'about:config' in the url bar):
 network.dns.disableIPv6

set it to true and see if that fixes the problem for you.  I had to set
that to true a long time ago because one particular site (that I was
taking internet-based training on) was excruciatingly slow (several
minutes to load every page).  After I set that to true, everything was
zippy again.

HTH,
Matt
