I certainly get slow downloads on my 56k modem. I expect it. I guess
what I'd like to know is if there is a way to automatically download

be done at night with cron or started just before bed and allowed to
run.

Quote of the day for December 5th, 2000
If addiction is judged by how long a dumb animal will sit pressing
a lever to get a 'fix' of something, to its own detriment, then I
would conclude that Netnews is far more addictive than cocaine.
