Well, if nothing else it is probably time to update anyway.
If that does not help, we can hope that some of the gurus have some
suggestions. It really sounded like a local network problem :(
Best of luck

help() seems the ONLY operation that's slow, Windows Task Manager
doesn't
show anything intensive going on, other programs running normally - it's
as
though a timer is set that diverts the request for a minute.
links within the help pages come up quickly, only the requests from the
console.
...i suppose rebuilding R is worth a try...i'm running
R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31)

It sounds like a local system problem. Are you running on a local intranet
or have something cpu intenstive running in the background?
