Subject: [CS-FSLUG] Wget getting sloooowwww

A friend of mine is running a dual-boot WinXP & SUSE 9.2 system.  He
is able to get to User Friendly (for example) in about 2 seconds using
Firefox under X.  Same for WinXP.  Wget takes 30+ seconds, and
frequently times out.  Ping takes at least 10 secs to start pinging,
but dig takes a second or so.  WinXP's ping is blazing, as well.  Any
ideas on what gives with the slowness of wget/ping under SUSE?

Thanks,
Don
