Title: I'm glad that is done

Just finished up doing some server stuff to help balance the load.  Please let me know if you notice anything broken; it would probably be a video clip link if so.

Ho that's sad.

I used to download your site with teleport in order to had multimedia part on my Hardrive. I think I'll have to reconfigure this software.

Anyway, it seems to be ok.

People using teleport was one of the main reasons I had to make the changes.  My server is on a bit less than a T-1 line.  Get just one person downloading with teleport on a DSL or cable modem and all my bandwidth was spiked.  Let alone the people who must have been on T-3s.  

Most small websites can easily support several people on 56k modems downloading as fast as they can, but if you're using a DSL, cable modem, or faster, then limiting your speed to about that of a modem is the kind thing to do.  I do it all the time when ftping or such.  Throttle to modem speed and leave it alone for a few hours - the server admin never even notices.

Ok I received the message.

But now, updating with teleport is just like if I get the page via my browser (only one review update each time I launch it).

By the way, your site is still my bible.
