I am using Internet Explorer 6.0, on WIndows 98 2nd
edition with a DSL connection and find that after around 8
page changes on the browser it hangs for around 1 minute
before progressing to the next requested page.

aAs anyone else experienced this and what was the solution?

You likely have Spyware -

"Spyware Defined: Silent background use of an Internet "backchannel" connection MUST BE PRECEDED by a complete and truthful disclosure of proposed backchannel usage, followed by the receipt of explicit, informed, consent for such use. Any software communicating across the Internet absent of these elements is guilty of information theft and is properly and rightfully termed: Spyware"

Follow the instructions for Ad-aware and SpyBot Search & Destroy at this

Please ensure that both scanners are updated *before* running a scan.

HTH & post back to this thread.
