I'm in the middle of the south pacific ocean and the telephone lines here are from the ""dark ages"". Dial-up of course and the speed is 2.0 or less ( if you lucky, sometimes it just blacks out for no app reason) However , when I have the need to dl a program , I'm NOT using the browser's downloader, like Opera or Mozilla. I found that >>Prozgui>> is a lot faster , not only in speed ( av 2.6) but also in total dl time. ym2c. Greetings from /bill at 169 west , 19 south. (where the hell is that?).
