Hello,

I had the same problem but I didn't find a way to resolve it. I was running
on two different machines same OS config but one was a iMac 333 and the
other was a G4 400 with plenty of memory. I had to go down to OS 9 all
extensions to get rid of the problem, it might be a extension that IE5
installs. If I have time I will look into it. Keep me posted on your
successes.

Thanks,


Jason Bourque
