Which is much better than NCSA Mosaic because it is a lot faster and even remembers which articles one already read. It also obviously behaves a lot more system friendly and has a better memory management. The times when Windows goes swapping for 5 mins. is definitely over ;-))) But there is one drawback: It does not support automatic signatures. Anyway, thanx for the pointer, Bob.
