Hell, I could have told you that if you'd asked. .-) I recently 'announced' in a staff meeting that I would appreciate it if connections to music etc. via RN be curtailed. At least until I get all my mail downloaded. 17 folks using one pipe @ 156K (I think) and the net reacts like sludge in the bottom of a frozen outhouse. It turns out it is one of the major problems here in Asia where inet bandwidth is limited. Folks listening to US (among others) radio for the latest news, music and of all things car advertisements. One day as I walked through the office there were nine folks listening in on their multi-media PCs. They do click onwards a substantial amount of the time if they can get away with it.
