<OT> IE5 downloads a 500K program first that controls the balance of the download/install process. MSFT's pipes must be jammed because throughput was terrible despite my using a 128Kbs ISDN line. It slowed, stopped and sped up several times per minute for the 2+ hours needed to complete the download. However, once the 500K loader is installed and running, there is little to do except watch the thermometer bar. If you do decide to download the beast, be sure to disable your antivirus program and close all other tasks. Craig
