Netscape 4.8 problem

Postby sadulet » Thu 28 Nov, 2002 12:50 pm

The Netscape 4.8 on my Mac (OS 8.6) stalls for about 2 minutes when I try to download(watch) a large file...after this 2 min the
browser and the system starts to work again. The "stalling" only happens with certain kind of web sites that have more complicated HTML, think?--- > I have broadband so that is strange! My internet exploder don't do that, so it can't be any problems with the connection--- Why? I tried to change the cache and several other options,
but still the problem don't go away!

Help me... please

I have, always, to ask this question, since I do not have clue. Does this happen with any large file? I have had considerable delays at certain websites, but my patience tells me to give up at the 30 second mark. And, I never compare anything with IE. (sure! I am using an IE-related browser).
