Back to slug speed.

I turned off Norton Firewall for five mins and
did a lot of "looking" here, page loading, flipping,
etc.

No change in sloth-like page loads, red Xs,
item count rolling by at bottom of page like
a slomo crawl...

Maybe it is jes' me & SG?! Lol!
I don't know what just changed, but it is lightning fast right now...9:53am (MST)

SG, we just traded places I think.

I thought the firewall off deal would have some
effect, but nada, mi amigo.

Since it is an addiction, I live with the quirks.
It just makes for "long views" and some frustration.

It's not our computers Dave, something is causing this. Too funny that the Gods just picked on you and I though

you guys scare me. the only thing that happened today is that i logged in right now and saw that both of you are back up to speed.

that makes me nervous because we haven't done/touched/upgraded/changed/ or otherwise modified the server, etc., in any way...

hope it stays at speed.

i think if it happens again you two really need to talk to your ISP....

Be afraid, be very afraid My ISP won't do anything because I connect effortlessly to every other site I visit, and I am connecting at ~6,700kbps.

Fwiw, I ran some "speed tests" off the web; most were
in the same ball park. My "best", run 30 secs. ago:

3.6 megabits per second
Communications 3.6 megabits per second
Storage 435.7 kilobytes per second
1MB file download 2.4 seconds
Subjective rating Awesome

Whatever the fook that data means, but it looks ok to me.
Every/any/all sites I plunge into, haul ass...

My Fave site, X5World, is currently hauling ass, too!
9:15 PM EST here in the land of sunshine every freakin day.

Just ran another 5597 dwnld.

Edit...just found a site that let's me test via servers in 8 cities of US:
all dwnloads were in the 5500-6800Kbps range.
