It can't be a coincidence. My W3, D2, And sc all have issues loading at start. You can hear the bloody cd reader labor at start up and sometimes it can take up to 2 minutes to start the games. Am i the only one? Other games seem to work fine.

They did that for me too, but the no-CD patches should fix that. Too little too late for me though, since I don't really play them anymore.

Mine are just fine, but I do use a no-CD crack (actually a mini image) so I don't often get my CDs out.
My friends, though, are cursed. I know one guy who has purchased The Frozen Throne three times and yet he doesn't have a CD. One of them he broke because he had been keeping it in his back pocket and sat on it! Most of my friends are completely scatterbrained. They lose their CDs, don't write down the CD keys anywhere, and generally mess everything up. I've kept my own CD key very secret to prevent anyone from stealing it.
One of my friends was even in the War3 beta and even he lost his CDs!

Go to the online blizzard store and register an account. From there you can register your keys and download the games for free. Unfortunately D2 isn't available for download yet but you can register your keys ahead of time.
Games available to download:
Starcraft+Broodwar
Warcraft 3
Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne
No more fiddling with cds and they give you broodwar for free since there was no key for it.
If you are running in linux and trying to run them in wine I could not get the downloader to work, couldn't validate my username and password. I pulled them down on a windows box then ran the installer for Starcraft without issue through wine 0.9.59 last night.
