Then exit 4.04. What! I can't find the option to turn off auto-loading of images, they've hidden it well since 3.x versions.

This is current from 2 Dec, and I installed netscape by downloading it and running the ns.install script as I didn't get hold of the ports collection. Has anyone actually been keeping netscape informed of these problems ? [I guess so, but thought I'd ask.] Steve -- Steve Roome - Vision Interactive Ltd.
