Rod, Are users accessing a Web application over HTTP or HTTPS? Have you tried HTTP Compression tools like httpZip, Xcompress, Pipeboost, etc? Will help to speed up ISA, but run the compression tools on the origin IIS server.

I have noticed a marked slowness in Internet connectivity, and that includes things like trying to go to our company's Intranet site. We do have ISA server, and I am sure that it could help me determine what the bottleneck is; but I haven't a clue as to how to use it to help me look for bottlenecks.
