Your connection is only as fast as the slowest point. I'm a heavy surfer; for the most part the problems are run in to are site with a slow connection. I have RR and regularlly get 4.5 down
One of the most annoying things is send a file to my friend 3 blocks away who is also running RR I'm only transfering at 100k a sec. The fastest upload speed I've acheived is 160 down.
^Not that I send many files, but it's annoying when you know that you both have a high speed connection and cannot achieve decent speeds.
Some one said above it would be nice if they evened out upload speeds some what.
At least google has the decency to mark ads with "sponsered results"
Some search engine, I believe Jeeves does just puts their adverts in the search results with no notice, so you if you click on the link it registers as a click through.
Seriously, I have no problem with ads for a free service. As long as they aren't installing spyware, adware, malware on my computer or hijacking my browser.
I mean they have to pay the bills some how!
How can people think everything must be completely free with no strings attached?
