FC2 Emacs very slow to load

This is a fresh install of FC2. There is a file that seems to be slowing 
down emacs when it is opened. When I type emacs foo at the prompt, the 
following file seems to bring emacs to a crawl:

Loading /usr/share/emacs/site-list/site-start.d/iiimecf-init.el

This delay is around 5 seconds before the buffer is displayed in emacs. 
I have tried putting my old .emacs file in my /home/username directory, 
but that has no effect, because this file seems to be loading before my 
.emacs file is loaded.

I have tried inserting the line below, and that doesn't change things:
(setq inhibit-default-init t)

Does anyone else have these symptoms with emacs in FC2? This wasn't 
happening in FC1, and a Google search for the above file wasn't helpful, 
except to see that it is part of fedora.

Thanks,
Clint
