I think that it might be related to the local access number I happen to be using to my ISP. I've got four numbers to choose from, and will start trying a different one when I get slow response rates. This is an extremely net busy area. I definitely also had some sort of internal bug in the machine, and especially in Netscape that was causing me grief too. Seems better now. Something was using up a lot of RAM and CPU. I defragmented my hard drive, which seems to have cured the problem, so I think it was disk related. I also had two incidences this week of lost clusters on the hard drive, which were Netscape and windows crash related. Sometimes, the Netscape cache gets screwy and messes things up I think. Usually, when I get a lock up, ALT+CTRL+DELETE doesn't do a damn thing, this thing locks up tight and just isn't budging. I've had it do it twice this week when I was shutting down, once when I hit START, and the other time when I hit SHUTDOWN in START. Personally, I think that Microsoft is leaving in bugs that screw you up when you use Netscape, so that you are more tempted to try Internet Explorer. I don't trust Microsoft not to use devious means to try and snag more business.
