I too have been noticing the same behavior in the last week or so. I
didn't clue in until I saw your post however. Do you think it could be IE
6 SP1? I didn't have the problem with IE 6. I've only noticed it on my
home computer running XP. I installed both IE6 SP1 and XP SP1 at the same
time. Netscape 4.7 with the same home page via Squid doesn't have the
problem from the same computer. Anyone else see this?
