I've used this tweak I found in one of my recent PC mags and noticed considerable speed increase using the web.

When you browse a network machine from a Windows 2000 or XP system, extra time is taken to determine if any scheduled tasks or printers are enabled on the destination computer.
Open your registry and find the key below: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/ CurrentVersion/Explorer/Remote Computer/NameSpace"
To disable checking for scheduled tasks delete the
{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF} sub-key.
To disable checking for printers delete the
{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D} sub-key.
The change should take effect immediately.
