Yes, I'll have to admit Haxnet, it would change my attitude if I could use dial-up without all the congestion. I tried to stop some of the non-essential elements to free up the connection, but that didn't flow. Maybe it's a learning curve. I suspect there is no respect for the rustic folks on dial up.
