Please let this be the reason why Gmail has been so slow today. Also, trying to download HL2 and CS:S through Steam is near impossible.

Where does one get this kind of info, I was wondering what in the wwworld is going on? But my Axxess pop connection is also crawling, and that is local.

Local was fine today so your problem might not be related.
BTW, things were restored at 15:18 apparently
