Have you tried what t1mmie suggested? You may also like to try removing other elements from the page, such as the call to render.php which produces the large image. Remove the background sound. Try taking out blocks of HTML.

There are no errors in the server log regarding your site and no one else on the same server as you has reported problems with their sites loading slowly so it almost certainly has to be something to do with the code on the page causing the server to serve it slowly.

It's most likely the preloading of all of those images. Try taking them out and see what happens.

Otherwise, it could be the welcome.wav file.
