I imagine that the bug report and logfile are irrelevant, then. I hadn't noticed the vanishing memory, but that indeed does happen. > However, if you press the stop button it will stop trying to load the > page, So it does! > and you can then shift-click on the sample menu (PDF) to download it.

You'll then need to quit NS to get your memory back. -- Brian Howlett I took a course in speed waiting. Now I can wait an hour in just ten minutes...
