Thanks odeon. That worked. Not sure if you have had this problem tho', but for the past 24 hours the 'net has been as slow as sending snail mail. Whether it's the network or something to do with Sep 11. Then again, it could be our ISP has put us back to 56K because of excess usage. Just wondering.

Who are you with? Have you had a look on the forums at Whirlpool to see if your ISP are having any issues?

Bigpond. It seems we have exceeded the usage (12GB limit). How it happened was that we put a wireless modem on, and then used 2 laptops AND the DSi while doing other stuff on the net. Must have spiked it early yesterday, and now we have to wait til Thursday to get back to normal. Unless we change plans. The one we're on is 256/64 and should be 150 Kb/sec download.

You have my condolences for being with BigPond.

I'm with iPrimus and have a 1111GB per month download limit. I'm on ADSL2+ but can only get about 5.5Mbit connection due to being far from the exchange.

As the account is in Townsville, we can't get ADSL2+ (that's what they told us, and also why they won't bundle the 2 bills together). We are thinking of changing either plans OR providers (possibly Westnet) but either way it's gonna cost. Is it true that compared to overseas (Europe, the US) our broadband is equivalent to their dialup speed?

Yeah, hopefully this NBN goes through okay and we can all have up to 1GBs speeds.

Problem is, politicians can never be relied upon to do anything they promise. Unless it's in their best interests.

Bought myself a nice looking bag of meusli today. Just poured myself a bowl of it, put the milk in, and then looked at the ingredients and noticed it contained sulpher dioxide. I'm completely intolerent. I wish people would stop using sulpher dioxide with food. Even MacDonalds is at it. I can't eat at MacDonalds withouit puking my guts out.

Didn't know what it was so looked it up. Mostly found in dried fruits and soda. Pick the raisins out of your cereal and skip the coke with your burger should fix it.

Must say, strange choice of preservative, sulpher dioxide. Thought you must be making a mistake at first, or I was thinking of the wrong thing.

I wouldn't go that far, but I do have a stupid habit of not checking ingredients in food and ending up puking all night. It's my own fault. If I remembered to check what's in food I wouldn't have a problem.

Didn't know what it was so looked it up. Mostly found in dried fruits and soda. Pick the raisins out of your cereal and skip the coke with your burger should fix it.

That's it. It's always in dried fuit and nuts, and they're 2 of my favourite things. I can't eat muesli without the fruit. For some reason it doesn't seem to bother me in soda. I really like the MacChicken burger but they even put it in that.

Must say, strange choice of preservative, sulpher dioxide. Thought you must be making a mistake at first, or I was thinking of the wrong thing.

I totally agree. Everyone knows what it smells like, so I can't understand why anyone would use it as a preservitive. But they do, and it's becoming more popular.

Lucky it isn't SO4 otherwise you'd be in deep shit. Still, food intolerance isn't funny at all.
