To interrupt a connection or data transfer, click on the spinning NCSA
icon in the upper right corner of the window.  At times, this may not
be possible -- (a) *during* a read(), (b) during a DNS lookup, (c)
during certain stages of a WAIS query -- but most times (and more
importantly, most important times -- during a hung connection or a
15MB data transfer) it will be possible.

Also, if you interrupt a document load after the document text has
been loaded but before all the inlined images have been loaded, you'll
go to the new document anyway and the images will simply be
represented as "no data available".  In the next version they will be
represented as deferred images (same as in delayImageLoads/-dil),
which will be more appropriate.

Cheers,
Marc
