Hi,
I have a website running on my main machine at home (WinXP SP2). I have set the website as my home page in my browser (IE7) using the host name.
Every time I open IE7 there is a long lag between the browser opening and the home page opening (up to 10 seconds). Using localhost instead of the host name is likewise very slow. When I changed the home page to use the IP address instead of the host name, that works very quickly.
Anyone know why using the host name would be so much slower?
Thanks
