At 9600, you're way too slow, Inkblot. I used to have dial-up and it drove me crazy........too long downloading and getting kicked off.

I found a deal with my cable company that included high speed access, and a whole new world opened up........it was wonderful. I still get booted, which AOL claims "should never happen with broadband".......yea, right.........and is slow sometimes.

Tonight was horrible for me as well.
