Winrar is what I use.... it has the ability to do Zips also

thats the bad thing with Video files....so big I have a stack of Digital tapes that I need to put on my computer, edit, burn to DVD and then re-archive... They are like 12GB/hour and I have about 20 tapes... I should be able to edit them from an hour down to about 10 minutes (2GB) Then I should be able to archive the edited version on DVD and keep the original in its tape format... thats the plan anyway bama

Like I said before... I can only dream of those type of times.... Looks good to me

one word......DAMN!

Ahhh...no problem...As long as you dont hijack the Subject line then we are ok..LOL

Swimmer... I meant to comment on your signature....Care to give a brief history?? bama

Yes...Here is my move rule that has never failed me... Apply this rule after the message arrives through the bamafamily account and on this machine only move it to the junk mail folder works for me....

Hey all, Just wondering who might be from Alabama?? bama

I was just wondering because of the Open Source value of it. FF has all these cool extensions that you can add and I didnt know if Thundervird had any useful extensions also. [just] Are you using outlook or express?? What version of Outlook?? I am using Outlook 2003 (11.5608.5703) I had one problem with my rules when I moved my PST folder, but after I reapplied all the rules they were fine.... bama

I have been running some variant of Outlook for many moons. A friend of mine said I should take a look at Thunderbird...(makers of Firefox) Just wondering the community's thoughts... bama

Thx Van Buren, I calculated my RWIN from the link you gave and came up with 58400..Close enough to your max of 64240... For now, I will probably just use 64240 until I change my OS settings...thx bama

Hey Van Buren, I had tried your Version 4 settings for my Cable connection based on 3500/384. I believe it gave a pretty big window..(of course that was assuming people were running SP2) On your recomendation, I am using TCP Optmizer until I decide if I wanted to install SP2. (Optimizer uses a setting of 256960) I saw you released Version 5, so I went in and looked at it. I see you put in an SP1 version and I noticed the "3000" setting in MSS1460/SP1 dropped the Window size considerably... Just wondering the method to your madness...lol thx bama

Van, I think he meant, how much does it cost per month in terms of paying your ISP? bama

List of NDT test centers http://e2epi.internet2.edu/ndt/ndt-server-list.html bama

I ran some tests using my onboard Nforce2 controller and an Intel Pro Management adapter.. No differences noted while surfing...and I dont do enough LAN stuff to make measurements... bama

I assume these are all in combination with routers...ie Hardware firewall?? bama

This is a setting that needs to be added... Right click, New, Integer, put in Name, then Value =0..Restart... Also..just ran that link using IE...Time came up at 1.5...hmmmm

used about:config settings changed: network.http.pipelining = true network.http.pipelining.maxrequests = 20 network.http.proxy.pipelining = true nglayout.initialpaint.delay = 0 (had to add this one) gl bama ps I really like this site....Where is it physically located?

Hey All, Seems a lot of people are using a website to test their Firefox optimizations. It is here: http://scragz.com/tech/mozilla/test-rendering-time.php Average of 3 tests My time before optimization: 2.687 seconds Time after optimization: 2.203 18% increase in speed.... Not bad but I dont really notice the missing .484 seconds...LOL Bamafamily

they just offered another package in a different ISP.. It is 6000/768 for $53/month.. Thing is I would have to transfer both my cable TV/Phone and Internet Service... I need to look into it though... Did you just run your test a little while ago?? I am having trouble with the d/l test, but not an FTP to my ISP..??

wish I could even have the option of going that fast...

What about the Open source wildcard that FF has?? I use about 6 of those nice little cool extensions in my daily routines and I dont know what I would do w/o them... Sometimes I like sticking up for the little guy just because he harasses Gates and keeps him in check.. In this case, I just like the better product.... Bama ps..I dont get those PDF crashes like you mentioned Swimmer...

I ahve read a lot about SP2 and see that most of the change was Security... In your opinion, is SP2 a worhty upgrade BESIDES this?? I have a nice router that keeps me hidden and I run my normalAV stuff , plus Adaware/Spybot in combo... just looking for some insight bama

Here are a couple of tweak tests from DSLReports Tweak test at DSLreports: http://tinyurl.com/6umjx Line Quality Test at DSLReports: http://tinyurl.com/56j69 For whatever reason, the line quality test has always been like this...Yet my speeds are still ok... Could it be some type of protection online at my ISP?
