...Andrew, but I'm not using Netscape - Opera is my favorite browser. Unfortunately the code I pasted there didn't post completely - lots of extended (!) characters are missing here.
BTW, Netscape and MSIE display the pages through the same firewall & proxy server smooht as silk, because they feature a much higher fault tolerance.
Tracert is ok - no problems at all. 99% of the other sites I'm connecting to display just fine - the rest doesn't stick to the w3c standards or has some weird custom coding...
Even my partner in Charlotte, NC has the same problems when using Opera, and he is 'sitting' on our NOC with several T3's and T1's, Cisco 7500 router etc.
Just for the fun of it I've bypassed the firewall / proxy - same results, but the pages stop loading at different levels (after emptying the cache of course) ... strange behavior.
I'm using another connection now, just to keep in touch - the X forum ** IS ** an important playground and communication tool for me ;-}
Thanks for your hints,
