DSL connection changes normally for the most part, but pages download very
slowly. Typed copy takes seconds to appear. Tried to download Virus Scan;
would not load. Was getting "script error" readings. Reloaded 6.0,
troubleshooted it internally a couple times.
 
Mike,
You may need to clear your TIF as you may have a corrupt file there.

Close all instances of OE and IE
Control Panel | Internet Options | General tab
Click the "Delete Files" button, when prompted place a check in:
"Delete all offline content", click OK
Click the "Clear History" button, click OK.
Click the Settings button, adjust the TIF size to 50 mb, click OK

Possibly your cache folder is corrupt:
