From there I blurted out some rubbish about OSX... Bad habbit and I beg your pardon J.M.P.
Have you tried Mozilla on the PM9600? I rather like it on a 7300 running OS9.1, mainly for its spam filters as it has better controls than the mac release of Netscape while being 100% compatible. Images are slower to display than IE
Given the times you posted I'd say IE has a install problem, not uncommon which is a shame as it was one of the better browers under the classicOS for rendering sites, having said that, my download took over 11 minutes using IE on 9.1 and disconnected once... :(
Mozilla downloaded the file in 3 minutes 42 sec. Sustained transfer of 397kb/s so it says.
http://www.pure-mac.com/webb.html lists a few different browsers and updates for OSX, Classic and 68k and kinda worth a look. I doubt "Wannabe" is 380mb. The Mozilla version there is old as we use 1.3.1 which is not a real release so your mileage may vary.
Any way I look at it your install of iCab beats my cable. I guess I should try it again.
Cheers
