Who is your internet service provider?

You might need to use a web proxy if their proxy is having problems - NTL (now virgin) used to have problems and you had to enter different web proxy server info to bypass the one that was being slow/buggy at the time.

Do a google search for your ISP+web proxy info and see if anyone else on the same network/your local area is having the same problems, or if there's any fixes for it.

Do you have torrents or downloads running whilst browsing? that can often be a result of slow pages loading/images not displaying for ages.

If that isn't it, mail their Tech support and see if there's sommat they can sort out like...
