Dan: The machine is a G4 PowerMac w/1.8 GHz Sonnet CPU w/2GB RAM) running OS 10.4.11. Browser is latest Safari version and web access is through a cable connection. I have 4 internal hard drives, but use the 40GB WDC WD400BB for most things because it seems the fastest. I don't think that heat is the issue and the activity monitor indicates that I'm nowhere near maxing anything out. I wonder if maybe there's something I need to do to speed things up overall, but haven't a clue as to what that would be. Recently, the screen froze when I had several apps open at the same time (including Software Update) and that was a mess to deal with. Thanks for any help you can give me.
