Hey Blue ---- ======> If you look at the time on my post to coug then the time above this one you will get an idea how slow the response time is here I read that you had Bill Jr telling you that it was you and not SI ..... and I can feel for you in that plight ........ ggggg When you've run into (as have all of us ) the exceptionally slow response time have you run a trace ? I had been having a GREAT deal of trouble with SI slow action and when I would call up a different URL, the time would be much faster or what I considered "back to normal". The squid thingie has happened to me a couple of times this week, but the "lost message" problem that we were having last month seems to have evaporated. The slow access time seems to come and go for me ....... the fast access will be just fine for a time and then the molasses will spill all over my hookup and I just get mad and leave ....... At any rate, I kept on talking with my ISP operator about this and he has discovered that part of the problem, at least, has been in several of his servers which accept only 56k hookups (as in different origniation phone numbers ) ..... he has taken them offline .... now I can only hook up at 30+ k but the access time to SI has not been a problem. I've been to the 3ComUSRX URL and when I get time, I'll download the software update that my ISP guy says will let me hook back up at 48+K ....... He did say that had it not been for me and one other fellow that he might not have discovered the problem on his end, for it was an intermittant problem and only happened with the older USRX 56k modem ...... now, I know that is not your problem, but it could well be some of the other folks ..... so I just brought it up ........ But the tracert function could well be a method for you to see where you're getting sidetracked in cyberspace ....... I know that you probably know how to do it, but for the others .... using IE .... I don't use Navigator ... click on Start icon click on Run type in ------- tracert and then type in on the same line at the same time ----- the URL where you want to go ...... a black small screen will pop up and show the hookups as they occur this was how my ISP guy found that two of his servers were routing the USRX modems to a dead server some of the time ......
