That's a kind offer, thanks. The page has a bunch of my passwords in it
so I'm going to hold off on passing it around.

There are several different viewpoints going on with this thread. Mine
is to figure out why 1.7.2 is so slow while the earlier 1.0, 4.61 and
2.02 aren't slow. "Somebody else" is trying to embarrass me into
upgrading my hardware. The ray of light from the north is hoping nobody
is listening to my complaints about his favorite email program. And
patient Steven is putting up once again with my inability to operate any
piece of software that doesn't run from a C:> prompt.

I guess my next step is to test with all Mozilla versions and see where
the slowdown first occurred. I was in the studio today (Wed) so didn't
get anything done. (For real -- I now have three different Mac-based
music studios pointing their fingers at each other about why $40G of
music files won't open. Luckily I have backups.)

Probably this weekend I can do the testing. Should I use my 256K
Trident, or do you want me to put my 8MB Elsa back in the machine?
