<me too>
Few weeks ago, I met analogous problems; on a related note, I couldn't=20
seem to use StarOffice 5.2 as a browser.
</me too>

Ok, no big deal, since I have installed an awful number of=20
[experimental] browsers, editors, etc. on my bloatH^H^H^H^workstation=20
:-)

I seemed to understand that S.O.52 couldn't properly connect with my=20
mailboxes, and it could never load a web page either, whereas a few=20
bytes were actually exchanged with the server(s). I did not=20
investigate where the breakage lay (S.O.52 ? The Linux emulation layer=20
? The port itself ?), though. Since S.O. 5.1 doesn't show such=20
problems, S.O. 5.2 may be broken in those areas.

Yet, as a free "compatibility" interface to M$ documents, it seems to=20
work properly.

Best regards,
Salvo
