The fact that the "starttransfer" elapsed times shown in the above results are so large would seem to indicate that the problem is at the server (not on your machine).
The "connect" and "pretransfer" times are quite short, so that shows that your machine has no problem in connecting to the server.
But the server seems to sit there for a while before starting to send you the files requested. I have no idea what would cause this problem - but it seems to be on the server side and hence nothing you can do about it.

On the other hand, I seem to have no problem in getting those files from the server - for example:
Code:

debug_http www.mia.com.mk/scripts/effects.js
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed  Time    Time    Time  Current
                                Dload  Upload  Total  Spent    Left  Speed
100 31969  100 31969    0    0  24369      0  0:00:01  0:00:01 --:--:-- 54962
dns: 0.446 connect: 0.592 pretransfer: 0.592 starttransfer: 0.750 total: 1.312

Do you always have this problem with this site, or is it only sometimes? Maybe the server is overloaded sometimes.

I've always had this problem with this server right from the very first time I tried to access it which was from another site's link, then from a Google search, etc. Summing it up, I sit in the same room, use the same ISP and router, and never have a problem loading the site in Win XP/Win Vista with my two laptops, but never have made it in Mac. No firewall incorporated in my AV soft and no problem loading other sites in Mac. Just this one.

Some things to try (to see if they fix the problem):
- disable your anti-virus software
- log in as a different (preferably freshly-created) user
- disable all 3rd-party utilities that might affect networking
