Took about 10 hours for the MGS2 trailer (138MB). I just kept my computer humming and the download coming for a day. But it was cool, superdupercool :D

I use Download Accellerator Plus.  It works a lot better than GoZilla does, IMO.  http://www.downloadaccelerator.com

I download big movies over night and while I\'m at school.  That way, no one gets mad at me for being on the internet all day.

I agree. I also use DAP. I like how it can dissconnect after the download completes. I just let my downloadds go overnight and when I wake up in the morning BANG there it is. I think the biggest thing i have downloaded with my crappy 56k is 90 mb.

Are you serious? Have you been living in a cave for the past 5 years?

Cable is like DSL in that it is a faster way to surf the web. It comes through you cable wire which then connects to your cable modem which connects to the NIC in your PC. It usually costs somewhere around $40 a month.

It\'s Broadband... which means it\'s always on, meaning it is not a dial up modem(which is at max 56kpbs), so Cable is upscale websurfing, depending who you get it from, comcast is my provider, and it\'s better than DSL.

I am still on stupid 56k!  But I think I can convince my mom to upgrade to cable.  It is only 10$ more a month than AOL.  I will get Cox@home since DSL is not available in my area!
