    K maybe its just me but I find IE5 way faster than IE4 and never have any problems with it. I used sing the praises of netscape and condemd IE but I find these days that IE is a lot better. Just my humble option

    Apprantly the problem stems from the fact there are varitions in DLL's in different windows 98 versions. Some versions of Win98 will screw up others won't.

    Here's another thing I heard, apprantly IE5 has a problem with office 2000 that will cause error messages to appear saying you have to update your s/w when you dont

    Anyone use Opera?

    I'm a communicator 4.5 type. I'd rather not, but I'm too scared of IE to change the fekker...

    I'd better go to sleep.

    I dunno I find IE5 to be the best browser out there, definitely the quickest and least likely to crash. Much as I hate to say Microsoft's browser pi$$'s all over Netscape.

    it works on some systems but not on others.

    Personally i think its a load of pants having given it 2 chances on my machine.
