Hey Sandy,

My intro thread was getting so long I was not sure you would check it again. So I thought I would post to you directly.

Sandy I quote you:Tried to get into your site . Had a hard time loading.
It's me ,I haven't cleaned out the comp. and I've downloaded music that I haven't burned so I'm slow.

1.) Cookies/Window temp-files, fragmented hard-drive or a nearly full hard-drive cannot have an effect on your connecting to my site. Are you dial-up? The collective size of that posting is over 1662KB plus the page itself. For a dial-up that is a killer. In my gaming world 95% of gamers are broadband and some of us even more. For example I upload 750-1000KB and download well over 4 megs per second--don't ask me how much $$ per month. (When hosting a game of 34 players a larger than normal "broadband" upload pipe really helps to prevent lag.) As such I often forget to consider dial-ups--me bad.

I could have made the pictures smaller in KB by using a Static gif format but then the words would have been harder to read. (I would have rather used a PNG format, but then the overall size would have been huge--6 to 8 megs. But clear as a bell.)

2.) If you are using any from of peer-to-peer file sharing software beside FTP then you really need to read the link below. It is scanned in from local newspaper as such the quality is not that good--sorry.

For that matter I think anyone who comes across this thread should read it as Parents, Grandparents, and friends are be sued for something they were completely in the dark about.

EDIT: I take it you do a lot of downloading. What anti-spyware are you using?
