THANKS! Jan:- I dit try all this out, and the problem still there. I think
I explained that it happen the first time I start IE, also other pages have
to be reloaded. I haven't installed SP2, Zus-Anne has the same problem with
SP2 installed. Jan I connect trought a router, and in the network
connections I have only Local Area Connection, Enabled, Firewalled. I didn't
try other browser to see if the same happen. I am loyalty to IE.
