What if I had two or more machines I > wanted to update? Those updater programs are really annoying. Quicktime 4 does it, but with that I found that after downloading everything, before it installs you search you hard disk for a 7 meg file, and that is the downloaded data. Next time you need to install QT4, you just run the installer program in the same dir as the quicktime data cache. Sorry I havent answered you question, I was just having a small rant :) Oh yeh, the leased line are good. I am at uni, so any file more than a few meg get done in 20 secs, and brought home on my zip drive :) And costs nothing! -- Nick Remove .SPANKYSPAM from my email address to reply......
