Re: browser problem again -- reply to all

[James David Byrne]

As I recall, <stop> will render whatever has been gotten so far, if it's 
possible to render it. That may explain why the (partial) page displays in 
this way. Does starting a big file dowload result in slow speeds or does it 
come whizzing in all the way? Most webpages are of relatively small size, so 
thinking about it, it would have to be connected at 2k or something 
ridiculous to have the effect you are seeing.

Download & install FireFox to see if it's browser specific and to show that 
the data transfer during the download is as fast as expected..  HTH  James

OK, I can describe it a little better now, thanks to all of you.  I am 
definitely connected to the Net. Things upload quickly and well. The 
browser is very, very, very slow in downloading. It's like it gets partway 
there and then stops. Sometimes it will eventually give a hiccup and 
finish. Sometimes it just sits there. If I click on Stop, whatever chunk 
of the page has been lost in the ether will appear -- complete or not, 
depending on how far the downloading has gotten. Eudora has no trouble 
even when all this is going on.
