IE generally shows a progress indicator when downloading large files. When I access any files from the World Of Spectrum ftp site the PC locks completely and I have to CTRL ALT DEL to get the tasks thingy to remove things.
As Mike Macnamara suggests, most likely I have some IE settings muddled up on this computer. If I get nowhere, I may ask someone to put these on CD for me and pay for the CD and postage, being less trouble than struggling with something I have no patience with when it is less than happy (Windoze). -- Dilwyn Jones
