>>IE runs curcles around Nav?what is it ? that would make it(ie4) worth the time and bother and resource hogging other than it being free and being fully capapble at the rare IE only site? Is it faster loading,better at email, better on the mac-- be objectively specific, please.

Hi Reg,

"IE runs curcles around Nav."

Could it be that Nav is left running around in circles inside some "open" API call-outs while IE slips through with "proprietary" DLL module links? A simple trick would be to load IE components into local RAM or cache leaving NSCP to the mercy of your disk transfer rate. That's what I would do if I was "innovative" and in control of the OS...

Cheers,

Norm
