    bad wireless connection and bad internal connection of the wireless receiver could be the culprit (or using usb)

    It could be a problem with DNS resolution. Try running nslookup from a command prompt and see if it resolves. It should resolve almost instantly. It it takes some time it could be failing over to your secondary DNS server or even your router/firewall.

    cmd prompt >
    nslookup www.yahoo.com
