PMS,

P.P.S. Now that I have Naviscope displaying my Next pages instantly, I'm hoping to discover a method of seeing the First page with equal speed. Any hints?

I don't see a way to do that. They say you can put a URL in as a prefetch keyword, but that method has not been useful for me. It would seem to work if you went to the classified section of a newspaper every day, after reading the front page. You would enter url: http://newspaper/classified.htm or something similar. This won't work for SI because each hotlink (to first unread messages) has a unique number in the address.

You can, however, prefetch the 'Subjectmarks' page. Do not use 'Subjectmarks' as a keyword, as it appears on the first version of that page that you will load, thereby getting for you only a copy of what you already have. Use instead "View Subjectmarks' which won't appear until you are reading the first unread post. Naviscope will then prefetch an updated version of the Subjectmarks page (once). After you have seen all the posts for that subject, and hit 'View Subjectmarks' or 'Subjectmarks', it will load instantly.

My IE is set to check for new version every visit to the page.

Hope this helps,
Frank
