I thought browser speed was affected by the bandwidth limitations of the ISP or the responsiveness of the server, so speedy browsers aren't that important... are they?

I would have thought the same, Gill.  The fastest browser would still be limited to the connection speed.
Many thanks to all our members, who have made PC Pals such an outstanding success!   :thumb:
