Hello everybody, my name is Alex

I use "free PPP" to connect to the Internet. The annoying thing is that
it takes almost 10 seconds to disconnect and I do not understand why.

I have a 7200 with 64 meg and system 8.1, Netscape 4.05 if it matters.
Anyway I do not think this is machine -dependant, in fact a friend of
mine with a 9500/300 got the same problem as soon as he upgraded to 8.1
(Yes, with 8.0 the thing didn't happen!).

Anybody who has a clue or who is experiencing the same problem??


Thanks
