running ICW won't mess up anything (unless you change something that messes
it up of course)
It almost sounds like your DNS from your ISP is failing except for that you
enter the IP and it's slow?
Are you running 1 NIC 2 NIC additional Firewall? ISA? What's your network
layout?
Are Downloads Slow also? Go to www.dslreports.com and do a network speed
test.
(if it's slower than it should be, it could be your problem. Then call your
ISP)
Another Shot in the dark sounds like your Primary DNS (From your ISP) is
Crappy
Call them up ask if the DNS server has changed been upgraded etc.
And of course make sure it's correct.
Also if you are using a 2NIC setup Check the server for SPYWARE
(hopefully they haven't surfed from the server and caused the server to
catch something.)
This would Definitely cause a slowness, but hopefully they don't surf from
the server...
I hope this helps
