    Hello all,

      I am attempting to work on a project for work at home and I'm experiencing
    extremely slow page loads. These are pages that work fine in the office but
    when I try to work on the project at home on my laptop, the pages take
    upwards of 100+ seconds to load. I will try to give all the pertinent info
    below. I think it is probably a security issue which is why I am cross
    posting.

      My laptop is acting as my web server. I am using DSL to access the
    corporate network thru VPN. The site uses Windows auth, no anonymous
    authentication is allowed. The problem occurs between the
    PreRequestHandlerExecute and the PostRequestHandlerExecute. Like I said, a
    delay of at least 100 seconds. I am thinking that maybe it attempts to
    authenticate using one method to the corporate network and times out, then
    goes to another method and succeeds. Here is some more info... using 1.0
    framework. XP Pro, IE6.0. Once again, the only reason it is going back to
    the corporate network is to authenticate.

      When I run this on my desktop(with the desktop acting as the webserver) at
    work, it has absolutely no problems. The only major difference between what
    I have in the office, and what I have at home is going through VPN.

      Anyone able to help me with this? I am the first to admit that security
    is one of my weaker areas so any help would be greatly appreciated. If you
    need more info, let me know...

    Scott
