Thanks for the suggestion. I actually tried it a couple of years
ago on my P166, but I wasn't that thrilled with it. A lot of that
was the UI I suspect, and I don't claim I gave it much of a chance.
 I'll certainly try it again as an alternative to IE!

Someone suggested by email, that I try Netscape's 4.7 problem-fix
wrt the FullSoft directory
(home.netscape.com/computing/download/post_dnld.html) but it didn't
help.

Thanks again to everyone who offered advice!
