Andrew,

I checked the hosts file.  It is the same as the one
you provided.  I modified the hosts file to include my
host's name (pc1) and it appears that the delay has
been corrected.

But now I have a concern.  My "network" is setup as
follows:
I have a 3Com ADSL router (provided by my telco).  It
provides the connection to the net, and DHCP services.
 My pc (pc1) uses client DHCP to retrieve an IP
address (192.168.??.?? don't remember the exact value)
from the router, but I have nothing to resolve the
address to "pc1".

I can go anywhere on the net, so I'm getting DNS
services from my provider and have only a couple PC's
on my network.

Would you recommend me in setting up a local DNS and
set DHCP on pc1 or just stop using DHCP and adding the
names to all the hosts files?

Thanks for all you help!!

Larry
