I've had a problem with IE5.01 startup lately, sometimes it just sits for 15-30 seconds or so before opening anything. If I keep clicking, it opens up 3 or 4 copies all at once :) This is on my home machine, and it's only been occurring since I downloaded every possible recommended upgrade/add-on for IE/Win98 over the TG weekend - 3 or 4 critical updates, plus about 6-7 optional things like DirectX7, etc.

I was just trying to stay state-of-the-art, and that's what I get for my troubles :( I guess at least one of the downloads was a bad idea...
