When you loaded from the Internet, the ActiveX component was already loaded but when you loaded from disk, the ActiveX component had to be loaded first. Try loading from disk, loading from the Internet, then loading from disk again and see if it loads from disk faster the 2nd time.

I have tested this with the cache emptied each time. The New York Times Web Page loaded in 5 seconds from the Internet, when loaded from a saved MHT file it took 10 seconds, and when loaded from a saved HTM file it took 23 seconds. Does anybody knows the reason for this, or how to improve the loading time from disk ?
