For me that's life on a dialup modem. Obviously on a dialup I miss out on numerous connections b/c many people with better connections filter me out. But it's what I'm used to. Plus with my bandwidth I can't really dwnld from more than a handful of people. A couple is best for me if they're going in finish in a reasonable time. Sometimes deleting the file in the Dwnlds window & reselecting it from the search results will succeed. I try doing that a no. of times before doing another search.

(My broadband keeps getting postponed!)
