Hi,
 Well it has nothing to do with a time limit or how long you do a
search. But there is a limit. Something like a freeway to divided
highway, dirt road then a path that stops.
 I went on I.E. and the same thing happened. It now showed a few more
entrys, up about a hundered from 210500 to 210600 or was it 21500 from
21600. I tried going back from the beginning to were I was stopped
with Netscape. Well around when I started to hit 500 it was slower,
and would start to come up with the no results page coming up. But a
quick go back and then on to the next results would move me forward. 
After 700 this was happening a lot more. After 730-740 it took about
25 -30 times before I could move forward on to the next 740-750. But I
could not get beyond 750. I must have have went back and and forth
between clicking on the Back arrow and the next results a 100 times.
It kept coming up NO RESULTS FOUND, check spelling ect.

Take Care,
