Thanks Willy.

I'm glad I'm not alone.

What about with different ISP's with the same computer?

On this computer, (586/133 with 8MB ram, 28.8 external modem) I am using 1.48 
and use Freewwweb most of the time as my ISP.  Sometimes the cursor 
disappears, but a TAB will restore it.  Other times, Arachne will partially 
load a page and lock up --- can't move the cursor, can't page up/down, can't 
hang up, sometimes 3-finger salute won't work, but, if I then go to 
Compuserve as my ISP, everything will work fine.  Now, on my other computer, 
(P75 with 40MB ram, 33.6 internal modem) Arachne (1.60b2) sometimes snoozes 
when going thru Freewwweb, but wakes up quickly if *any key* is pressed, even 
<SHIFT>, but hasn't experienced any sleeping symptoms using Compuserve.
