Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5It's called FlashGet - an ingenious little prog that can quintuple download speeds:
http://www.amazesoft.com/download.htm
worthy endeavour, but after an hour of trying, I've thrown in the towel on this one. First thing I did was to download the flash guardk, but it doesn't seem to have worked, and I'm on broadband.
the UCD lecture on Democracy and intellectuals has had 55 hits so far (maybe this unsuccessful attempt has made it 56).
Any chance you could post them on www.radio.indymedia.org BP? for all its glitches, it's very accessible when it's workin'.
but I've spent a total of 5 hours bustin' my banana on the IndyRadio server, both before and after resorting to radio4all, but can safely say that there is absolutely NO WAY it is taking this stuff being upped.
So I recommend u forget Flash and just let it trickle down direct overnight - I know its excruciating - try weeping, that'll take your mind off it, etc.!
Or just crack a 100TB/s server and donate it to both the above outfits. Cheers.
just follow this link:
