BonsaiTALK Connection Speed

The bonsaiTALK server has gotten so slow in the past week. The web host claims its a combination of issues, including the "DOOM worm" virus, and that the connection speed issues aren't affecting everyone.

They claim to be installing some new hardware Monday that should improve access speed.

Let's keep our fingers crossed. Might be time to be looking at some new web hosts!

Regards,

Matt

im fine, im on uncapped cable. but im also using opera, which is a faster browser than others. maybe try it?

www.opera.com

if you using internet explorer u'll never go back, tabbed browsing is the best. oh well im off to rip the guts out of some invading ivy.
