    Default Man....whats up with the library download speed??

    I noticed the other day I went screaming through a download instead of the usual 90-100K. Just did a couple more,one was at 589K,this is like speeds of years gone by.

    Hope this isn't short lived,and THANKS!!

    Yeah,6K is real good for dial-up,although rarely seen. I cancled the dial-up and hooked up to cable about four years ago,could never go back to dial-up. Get cable or DSL if you can....

    How do you manage that? I've tried with 2 megabit cable and even with OC-3 45 Megabit, both with download accelerators and can only get a mere 40k or so... 10k without.
