Thanks everyone. I knew I could count on my friends in the forum!
If anybody else has a painfully slow dial up connection, just the first tweaks in the system.ini file DOUBLED my speed! First speed tweaks I ever found that actually worked and worked well.
On a lighter note: Sweetpea, I literally live across the street from my home state of Arkansas, on the Oklahoma side of the street. These Sooner fans are kinda agitated at hearing me call the Hogs! I love it!!
