my asp.net website is slow at my work machine but very fast at home. My work
uses a firewall. Can that slow down the loading of web forms?

are there any "common" things I can try to get it to load faster?

It is a database driven (access) ado.net asp.net site, very simple in
structure that uses asp.net forms.
 
Many businesses use a proxy server to manage the flow of traffic in and out
of the company network. One of my clients is one of the largest insurance
companies in the world, but when I try to use the Internet at their
workstations, it is much much slower than my DSL connection at home.

I don't think it has to do with your application at all, since you say it is
fast for you at home.
 
Thanks for the reply. Another reason I am wondering is because some other
sites I visit at work are quite fast. One site I had in mind does not
display using web forms. Perhaps web forms take longer to load than other
technologies?
 
The very first time a web form is processed by IIS, it will take slightly
longer to load because there is some JIT happening right then and there.
However, a copy of the JIT file is created on the web server and this file
is used from that point forward. So the second and subsequent times, the
file should load very fast.

You indicated that the web form loads fast when you run it from home (the
server is not at your home right?) which tells me that it is not and .aspx
issue.
