Peter, yes it does seem to lock up for about 30 seconds. Then I get a web page in my browser showing the header information I posted earlier. I just looked at the source for that web page and this is what I got: Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2002 14:03:26 GMT Server: RealPage 2700 Location: http://server1.someserver.com/webpage.html Content-Type: text/html X-Cache: MISS from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Transfer-Encoding: chunked 9d <HTML><HEAD><TITLE></TITLE></HEAD><BODY> <H2></H2> <A HREF="http://server1.someserver.com/webpage.html";> </A> <P></BODY></HTML> 0 That is exactly how it appears in the Netscape source viewer. I especially like the "space link". So, I'm guessing that the extra junk at the bottom after the headers is what is causing the problem? John
