Default Your DL Issues

Since you have a Jurassic Modem, I suggest you DL one file at a time this way you can DL in the "priority" you choose. Yes the number of DL's counts multiple hosts for example, if SEARCH says 12 files found, and you see (filename) with an 11 in front of it and another (filename) under it, there's your SEARCH 12 files found. Somebody mentioned DL the file with the most hosts, that is true for several reasons. The two most important are speed and the likelihood of it being a good file (though not always--there are some chowderheads that feel it necessary to perpetuate bad files). Obviously, if available try and upgrade to a faster modem. Best Of Luck
