    There is another way too….
    Start using “Open dns”….
    but still it will be slower….
    The fastest way is to create a dns server from you own computer and in the dns address, put 127.0.0.1 as the first dns server, then add the sites you use the most in that dns server list with their ip address, and then whenever your computer will open that site, it will first look in your computer to first find out the ip address of the site, and if its not there, it will go to second dns server and will update your computer’s dns server with the new ip of that site(in case they change their ip address)…..
    (In Linux, its an easy task but I haven’t tried it in Windows coz I use Windows only to play games, not for internet or anything else)
