There's always variabilities re: a persons connections reliabilty. For LW Basic, the search quality varies constantly for me. Even down to the red on occasions. I'm sure it won't remain that way for you (are you running any other net apps?) If it varies for basic it might vary for pro, but not quite as drastically (I've used pro before) & apply the optimisation techniques for your connection, dwnlds & searches.
