I like to call that security vulnerability ActiveX. 'Nuff said Also... Let the browser wars in our sigs and avatars begin!

I switched to Firefox not just because it has more interesting features like tabbed browsing and "live bookmarks", but also because I think M$ cares more about big buisness then it's customers. I mean look, does anyone see how many "patches" they release every month? Besides Microsoft seems to be getting a little to big. I do think FF is more secure. Firefox supports 256 bit security, the last time I heard IE didn't. EDIT: (My own "Firefox "Commercial"): Computer with Windows XP and 10/00 NIC ~$575.00 High speed net connection $42.95 a month Playing it smart and safe by using Firefox as your web browser... Priceless Firefox, because there are some things internet surfers know they must have. Firefox, accecped at major web sites eveyware. (now back to your show, ur, I mean, your posting)

I don't think so. Especially since people have already replyed to the post. Just let an admin know, the'll take care of it.

Yea, it's the 4Mb/384Kb plan. The 6/384 is an extra $10 a month.

Speaking of that. Ca3le do you keep stats on which browser people are using to access the site?

Testmy seems to be somewhat gaining on BBR. <a href="http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?&compare_sites=broadbandreports.com&y=t&q=&url=testmy.net">Alexa.com data</a>

IMO too, Firefox is the best.

You get that speed with Cingular? I'm guessing you work for them.

Your speed looks good. You have the 4Mb plan right?

When I first read the post, I thought it said you get better BTU :haha: :haha:

I haven't built my own computer yet, but you need to know more than that. For example your CPU, memory and motherboard all need to be compatible with each other. Also your CPU and fan/heat sink need to be compatible. You should write down everything first. Make a list of what you want and make sure each part is compatible with the others.

My speeds have been consitant for a while. https://testmy.net/personal_stats_30d.php?user_Name=netmasta&m=05&d=21&Y=2005

Yup, all of it. You see, the people in this kind of scam convince you to give them your bank account numbers. You can probably guess what happens next. The <a href="http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/alerts/nigeralrt.htm">FTC</a> and FBI have been dealing with the scam for years. It's hard to catch these guys though, because mostly of them are operating out of countries that aren't cooperating with international officials.

Nope, not just you. That scam was around before the internet. I guess they started out by mail, then moved on to faxing. I've heard a few dozen or more (probably more) people fall for the scam every year, and loose their life savings.

You forgot Comcrap. Oh wait, that's already reserved for Compaq. Anyway, I know how you feel. I hate Comcast and [instert company's name here], tech support. I also agree about cable TV too. I can't wait until Verizon offers FIOS net an TV in more areas. Then maybe we will have some decent TV prices. ~$90/mo for 4Mb/384Kb and about, what 50 or so TV channels.

I received it twice in my PM. I reported it right away. I can't even begin to know how many times I've received a varint of it in an e-mail.

If you get a PM from akujmartins asking for money, do NOT respond! It is a scam. Report the message to the admins. It is known as the "Nigerion money scam". You can read about it here:http://www.snopes.com/crime/fraud/nigeria.asp

It goes like this [img=http://www.bbspot.com/Images/News_Features/2003/01/os_quiz/redhat.jpg] Paste the link to the image and insert the IMG code, as shown above.

Commicast? You don't like them? Those are pretty good speeds, especially your download.

Please do not create the same exact post twice.

I have used Ebay and Paypal many times and have not had any problems. Like others have said, check the users feedback. You should also check similar auctions to make sure you are getting a good deal.

It could have something to do with the speed. The host stats page seems to take a long time to load sometimes. Maybe it has something to do with that.

Slow? that's 100% of your advertised speeds. Try testing on the main server a few more times at different times of the day, if you can. You'll probably get around 4Mb

If I remember right, I think a problem like that has been around for at least a few months. Ca3le will probably look into it.
