Oh, sweet broadband!
So, after some googling – and I use that term just because it’s an accepted one – I am back to pre-SP4 speed. The solution involved tweaking one of the incredibly obscure registry keys, and to this point I don’t know what I did intially that could have made SP4 barf this way. But if you ever run into the same problem, edit this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Tcp1323Opts
and change the value from 0×3 to 0. People with nothing better to do can read this .

What’s it called when you use Yahoo? ya-ho’ing?

If my memory is correct, didn’t Yahoo have a punchline of “Do you Yahoo?” in their TV ads during the dot-com boom? So , yeah , the term “Yahooing” is probably correct.

LOL, “Do you ‘ho?”, “ho’ing”.

That last comment might also fix SP4 as well.
