    Hi all,
    In this website(http://www.digiscap.com/beta/index.html), we have a banner image of large size (63kb). I understand it will take time to load for the first time. But when ever the browser is refreshed the image loads again slowly. This happens only in IE. its fine with other browsers like firefox and opera.

    apart from the size of the image, is there anything we could do to solve this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Check your browser settings.
    It sounds like you are not cacheing correctly.
    Also... you have sliced up the banner into several parts that will slow things down.
    Perhaps the main reason is that you have a large number of small image files on the page which will only be called two at a time, adding a lot of latency.
    I would suggest that you locate the CSS background image definitions near to the top of the CSS file or write the CSS inline.
