Hey Med,
Serious question, and I'm not just blowin' bubbles here... Is your Win 98 a full version or an upgrade? The upgrade doesn't play well at all with IE 5.5. Lots of probs with java scripting and the like.
You might want to check Microsoft's site, I think they have a patch for it, or you could upgrade to Win 2000. Netscape is an option too. I did and it's been seamless with all the browsers. I have @home cable service and it uses the Excite browser.
You know Cam is going to say something about Macs now...

My problem posting is with the "Confirm" button; it depresses and locks--erasing the page and requiring a Ctrl-Alt-Del restart. I'm using IE 5.5 on Win 98, and I've done *everything* (short of loading Netscape just to post on Babble). Any ideas/suggestions or commiserations gratefully accepted.
