I've noticed a HUGGGGE difference.
This is the sticky I followed
https://testmy.net/topic-2097
It was amazing.
One thing though.
My results after using Cable nut + settings lead me to inconsistent results,
it was only when I d/l SP2 patch that the results plus the above, that things fell into place.
These results are from cable nut + settings + SP2 patch + following the sticky to a tee!!
Nothing more and nothing less
Anyway Thanks Van!!!
Hmmm Im just trying to remember just bare with me.
It was in a zip folder labeled SP2 ????....
You were helping another forum member out.
Hold on.....Here's a screenshot of my settings

These are the settings I used. I hope this helps
Yeah.
I followed exactly what you recommended in one of the threads.
Cable nut + SP2 settings + a program that's recommended for SP2 users.
It's all in a thread you started. I just can't remember where it is
Here is a link to the speed test my ISP gave me.
These are my results

Im pretty sure they said 600/130 Kbps for my d/l & u/l
Okay I called my ISP and this is what they told me.
My modem can handle 600 Kbps on the download
and 120-130 Kbps on the upload.
They were pretty amazed when I told them my scores
Microwve
you bring some valid points to the table.
And like most I.E user and Opera users for that matter were all stuck in our ways, i guess.
If I.E works for you then that's great, as long as you realize the alternatives and it seems like you have, then hey if it's not broken then why fix it

Anyway, I don't want to turn this thread in to a flame war.
So check this out

Maybe this will help
I think my point is M.S doesn't care about the user.
Look how long it took them to(consider) coming out with I.E 7
Why? because they know it's all over
People are using alternatives
It's all about the dollar BILL
:lol:
Yeah, and you really believe billy boy
After how many years, they are finally going to upgrade/fix I.E
Now that's funny :lol:
What record? Oh... I.E's extremely poor record on just about everything.
Or maybe they'll fix the holes like they did with SP2 . :lol:
If you believe this O.S then may the force be with you
because you'll definetley need it
