    many software do that kind of thing. its not your os or the browser you are running. it might be happening because you are running that program the same time you are using the internet. it happens to me when i use my printer and start typing. sometimes my cursor freezes on a spot for a couple of seconds. its the program probably hogging your memory.

    How's the CPU usage? Can you check it at all with Win ME? Does it always do this 'delay'? Cos if it doesn't, see what other programs are open and using the CPU when you are browsing the Internet. Maybe try close almost all your programs, then see if this 'delay' goes away.

    maybe is that you have a spyware program on your comp because that happens to me and i check it out on my comp and i found a spyware program installed so i think it could be that or maybe is just coincidence

    Thumbs up

    Don't overlook all "the usual suspects" when you
    get a slowdown:

    Lack of memory, mis-configured virtual memory, fragmentation
    too many background processes.

    Does it still do it right after a fresh reboot?
    Remember, ya gotta reboot a lot.
