Something new- several users have commented that FTP downloads are much faster now; I've verified this. Back in the 4.6bi12 or 4.6C days, modem speed was a good indicator of how fast FTP would run: If your connect speed was 26.4, your ftp speed was 2.6 at best, on an already-compressed file. A GIF, say. Which is all anyone downloads anyway except for Yet Another Microsoft Patch. Now, on a 26.4 connection, FTP rates are typically 3.1 to 3.4... As I said, I've verified it. Must be the new modem code. Whatever it is, Thanks, Ascend! 'Shot -- Darkshot (Michael B.
