Top 10 Part II in Barron's ..http://www.marketgems.com/barrons.htm though you might like to see this from Monday's edition. .. I highlighted in bold the section on Market Gems and Silicon Investor. The 'site' is not not directly from the internet because you would need a password to access it so I just reprinted it to my website.. The buttons and java script won't work..of course. jenna Market Gems

I am interested in understanding what you are talking about and was wondering if you could direct me to a site that would explain this subject. I have experienced problems, IE browser running as slow as a turtle while Netscape seems to fly.Something must be wrong as these browsers should be somewhat comparable in speed. I just installed this msdun13.exe (http://www.wugnet.com/tips/98_/11-19/index.html) to speed up things and I have questionable results.....very fast last night but back to the turtle today. I guess I should learn about the other variables in connection speed but testing both browsers in the same manner always has Netscape much faster........lost in cyber space
