[GreenKeys] ITTY

[Alf Fisher]

Hi Martin,
I'm using Win7 and the Palemoon browser ( a lightweight version of Firefox).
It starts up and works fine within about 3 or 4 seconds.

Absolutely not, its a very slow broadband connection, but that isnt the
problem, it runs fine when its connected. Its an older XP machine which
makes things worse, but I have tried it on 2 XP machines, one more
modern, and its just the same. One more thing I could try is a windows 7
machine just to compare, I might try tomorrow.

I could also try IE, god forbid.
