Re: Explorer hangs opening BTYahoo home page

>>> the home page hangs whilst loading.

My guess is that the content is different as a result of the
different connections; so saying it works on one provider but not
another may not be significant. However you could try to ensure
that you were comparing more similar content by changing some
settings temporarily as diagnostics.

What happens if you disable all active content?
E.g. the simplest way to do that would be to change security settings
for that zone to High. (Doubleclick on the zone icon in the status bar
then press Alt-L and CursorUp.)

To get an even fairer comparison it may be necessary to temporarily
disable Show Pictures (Options, Advanced tab, Multimedia section).
