I did a couple "full text" searches this morning. Each took two attempts to complete. I got some sort of browser time-out error message before the search completed. On the second attempt, I guess enough info was cached to allow the search to complete.

I'm using cable as well and my connection is so bad it almost makes reading messages not worth the wait. I don't have the patience to even try a search. I contacted RoadRunner about the difficulties with SI and they checked their routing and SI's cable servers are having problems. It's been this way for several days for me and I have emailed SI with tracert and ping info. There have been many timeouts trying to get to SI and several times 100% packet loss. No reply (other than the automated email response that they would check it out) as yet.

Obviously the font problem has been put on the back burner. How long has it been? Several weeks or is it a month yet? Getting to the point I wish I had never paid for a lifetime membership. I should have waited for a freebie and then I wouldn't feel as cheated.
