when I open igoogle or any other website, a mini blank page (about a third of the full screen) appears for a sec then the full page complete with info appears. The blank page displays only mozilla firefox, the next full size shows the complete web site, e.g. google, yahoo, hotmail, etc. The lap top does not do this only the desk computer. This has only started recently. We did up grade our dsl speed but they ATT has assured us that the problem rests with the browser.
