I'll download it and give it a shot, for sure. IE's \"Internet Options\" don't only change things in the browser, they change things throughout the Windows operating system too, so maybe we'll get added features. I'll probably not use it as my main browser, as Opera satisfies all my needs and more at the moment.

Also, IE has poor image and style sheet rendering capabilities.

When ever I use FF it takes about 2 - 3 seconds more to load the images than on IE.....

As long as you're on a good connection.  If there's someone with Dial-up, it'll kill them to take a few more seconds.

lol.  Maybe near, but probably not that bad.  I do remember having dial-up, about a year and a half ago.  Boy, was that a pain.  And some pics would take quite a long time to load.

Resolution of the picture doesn't really say anything, its compression is what will tell us most, SWE.

Obiously, but the point i was trying to make with a resolution for an example was it was a lot faster with a smaller picture and alot slower with a larger picture.

Size does matter alot.  If you've got a 30X30 pic, or a 3000X3000 pic, you know for sure which one will take longer to load.
