I have dial-up (unfortunately) and at about 8pm no pages will display no matter what I do. Sometimes a few pages will display, but definitely not Yahoo or MSN. What is the problem? Don't tell me to get DSL or High-speed, because it is unavailable in my area at this time due to a wreck not too long ago that damaged some lines. Please help, this is very annoying!!

Ok, try this. Sign up for a free dial-up access account with Juno:
http://account.juno.com/s/landing?action=viewProduct&productId=free&group=iso-standard-plus-commitment
and another one with Net-Zero:
http://account.netzero.net/s/landing?action=viewProduct&productId=free&group=iso-standard-plus-commitment
and use one of them when you regular ISP won't let you online.
Both Net-Zero and Juno's free plans will give you 10 hours per month internet access. Should be enough to get you through the times that your own ISP is uncooperative!

According to your situation, nothing's wrong with your internet connection. Possibilities are:
- Internet traffic congested. This will affect dial-up user badly.
- Low memory bandwidth. Loading a heavy-source web site like Yahoo! or MSN needs lots of memory. I believe Google should load just fine to you since it requires least data transfer compares to the other two.
- Javascript blockage.

might be that too many people are on -line with dial up at the same time. 8pm is a very popular time. I have dial up with no option for any hard line unless I use satellite which is very expensive

That happened to me when i had msn dial-up. There server probably close at that time. You should get comcast. It will make you be able to connect to the internet far away at high speed.

Somtimes deleteing your connection and recreating it will help. Be sure to save all of the information first.
