I've seen Web pages with scripts that, when rendering of the page is done, a script then downloads additional scripts from a server. Sometimes it seems that one of the addtional scripts then downloads even more scripts. Since I have a dial-up Internet connection, this really slows things down. The Web site for the Vanguard Group (mutual funds) is one such site. I generally disable JavaScript when viewing pages at that site. However, I must enable JavaScript for certain pages to complete transactions or view account statements. -- David E.
