I have an iMac I purchased in 2001, which was a mistake, since I am pretty much computer illiterate . It has been in storage for a few years. I just got it out and connected to Juno. To do that, I had to download OSX. I am using internet explorer 5.1. It is very, very slow and many sites I cannot connect to. I cannot get to my hotmail account. If you respond, please remember I need the answer in very elementary language. Thank you.

Why did you have to download OSX? What are specs on your iMac,memory,etc.Didn't you have an OS on your iMac?

First things first, what version of OS X is it? If you go to Apple Menu (top left icon) and click on 'About this Mac' what does it say? We need that info for starters. If you are using IE 5 for Mac it's gotta be pretty old and needs a newer OS installed. The only way to do that is for a Panther/Tiger Install DVD. WE need more information before we can properly help you.
