<br>> Regards,<br>> Max<br>><br>I had a similar problem in SeaMonkey a while back, reported it as a bug, got the nightly build of SeaMonkey from a week or so ago (I think I need a new one), and it performed just fine for a while. Now it has the same problem again, so don't be too quick to absolve Firefox - other users have noticed this, too.
