    What's worse than surfing GFY on 56k?...

    Try doing it on a WebTV, lol this is
    painful...

    My PC AND laptop are on strike. I've been trying to fix for a couple of
    days and drats this is the only way I can get online. If my posts seem off the next couple days you know why

    How about surfing it on a shared office wireless connection that has like a 1mbps uplink to the net...

    Take Luck!

        Your comps are borken and your main concern is letting us know you'll be posting less on gfy?

          I'm on hi-speed but for nearly a week it's been off-and-on like 14k ... I feel your pain.

                  wanted to say hi to someone when I
                  finally got a connection... leave me

                    And when I said "off", I didn't mean
                    post count...I meant content. These
                    buggies are harder to proofread

                      I was gonna say "surfing GFY on 56K on your cellphone". But I think WebTV is worse.

                            i hate dial up with a passion

                            Often times I wonder why
                            There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                            When sickness comes I must decide:
                            When feelings go, theres suicide.

                              Dial-up is the devil. Everytime I have to use it after using my 4mbit I go mad... you just watch the status bar. Trying to surf my own sites for stats takes a year.

                                              Being his girlfriend ain't exactly a piece of cake either.
                                              SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                                                  Turning off Sigs is a good idea

                                                  And in FF u can block images from GFY as well

                                                  But it looks odd

                                                    maybe we could start up a 'upgrade
                                                    mardigras's connection to ADSL' fund.

                                                    LOL, I have DSL, I'm just having a time getting either one of my PCs working enough to connect to it.

                                                    Not sure what hit the desktop,
                                                    suddenly my network connections were
                                                    wiped out and it won't let me create
                                                    new ones. I can't get into safe
                                                    mode, when I try to choose diagnostic startup it tells me only an
                                                    administrator can do that, although I am logged into an administrator
                                                    account.

                                                    I bought a new hard drive yesterday
                                                    thinking I might be able to get it
                                                    running with a new Windows
                                                    installation but it's giving me
                                                    failure messages on the startup disc.
                                                    Tomorrow I'm going over to mom's house and use her PC to download some alternate boot discs. That's the only thing left I can think to do before giving it up for dead.

                                                    This has me really stumped. I don't
