fair enough, maybe I should be blaming microsoft really and the memory issues in regard to IE:Mac and os9 on an old G3.. it's not as bad as some sites though that have their whole navigation in Flash and you get the message of doom:
index.swf failed to load, try allocating more memory to Internet explorer
At least we have broadband now so I'm not waiting 5 minuites to see this kind of message.... But the issue isn't whether I should stick it in favorites or not, but the cronic overuse of flash on the web, which whilst all looking very nice can be a bit of a hinderance if you don't have a fast internet connection or computer, surely it's better for anyone on any connection and any computer to be able to see websites than just get a blank page that doesn't do anything...
