Hmmm. I ping Yahoo.com and get 73-77ms, I ping www.yahoo.com and get 28-30ms. Anyone know why? Just wondered if there was a technical reason hehe.

I get 120 and 71 respectively...interesting. I'd imagine it takes longer, because it has to look up Yahoo's full web-address.

Go to your start menu, click "run" then type "command" or "cmd" (without the quotes of course) then when you are in a command window, type "ping www.whateverwebsiteyouwanttoping.com" or the IP of the site nad then hit enter
