How much I do like to see people thank me I don't think it's needed to
thank us (atleast not me) every time we help you out. I'm just glad I can
help and I hope that people realise that I'm grateful for their help
without me saying so.

Depending on if IE must be loaded - then you'll run out of memmory faster.
It will also take longer for you to start your Internet session - but I
guess you've already seen that.

Go to a URL that has https:// as a start and it will come on.

You'll need to set your DNS to the number the ISP specifies (if they aren't
willing to give it to you try and find someone else using the same ISP
under Windows 9x and ask them to check what the DNS is). Or perhaps there's
some way to show it (look at the statusbar in IE perhaps it's on there when
it searches for a server).

You'll need news support in the browser (or a plugin to external program)
to reach newsgroups.
