EMERGENCY

[Tony]

Hello fellow explorer users, two days ago the most
frustrating thing happened to my internet explorer, it
took me back to "56k mode". I now have dsl so 56k is
naturally slow, anyways Whenever i load a page it loads
just fine but the little load bar at the bottom stays
at "100%"(full green thingies) and i cant click anything
or move the window around, however after literally 5
seconds the page seems fine, it does this for any page i
try or if i just open it and click stop loading, i was
wondering if anybody knew what the hell this is and how i
can get rid of it because noe i am using the aol beowser
and dat is not my idea of fun, im alos curious if this
happened to anyone else.

Hey that sounds like the same problem I'm having with IE
just freezing after loading a page. Its bloody
frustrating. At least I know its not just me now.
