Could this have anything to do with the nytimes site expecting some response from the operating system that is not getting from debian? Has anybody observed a similar situation? By the way, this is the only site that has this especificbehavior.
I just tried it from my Debian box at the office; took about 51 seconds, 50 of which were spent "resolving www.nytimes.com". A traceroute gets about 13 hops down the route and then hits a major snag just after ge-1-2.a00.nycmny01.us.da.verio.net, getting nothing but three *'s on each hop thereafter. (I'm too traceroute-illiterate to know what this means, but I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to do that).
