With a 3400c and 80 MB Ram, I had to switch from 8.1 and Nav. 4.6 to 8.6 and Mozilla (stable version) to take advantage of a high-speed connection. This stable version of Mozilla is anything but - any ideas? It crashes 4 or 5 times a week. 8.1 was stable as a rock but slow, so HW is not an issue. The 8.6 install was probably buggy. Can't get it to see a network printer (some extensions may be missing, but the only other Mac on the network is using OS 9) using HP installer SW. I'll keep trying - Mozilla is still worth it, despite the crashes. Cheers George
