That's Sweden, one e and no q's. (No, I didn't say there were any q's, just
that there shouldn't be :P )
Secondly, you need to start at a University to get that speed. I'm on a
100 MBit house-net that goes directly to the main node in southern Sweden
for the Swedish University Net (34 GBit) about 300 feet away.
I have pulled about the same speeds Mika mentions later in the thread half
way acccros the country.
At home though, it's the same old 3.7 kB / sec maximum.

Mika probably did the same as I did: Got lucyk and ended up on a fast line :)
My schools net sure has made me spoiled and picky.... one tends to do that
with transferrates that go up and beyond 1 MByte / sec :) Also, pretty fun
to play Quake over the net when the server is less then 100 feet away :)
(Did someone say "ping"? ;) )

Probably just a transient failure. You should probably try again.
Also, you should probably take note that the message you responded
to is over two years old.

A number of sites were having this problem last night. The simple fix
was to turn off javascript in your browser.
What appeared to have been happening was this:
1) the site uses an off-site advertising agency (okay)
2) the off-site advertising agency uses javascript in their
advertisements (bad) but puts the javascript in a separate file (good).
3) the off-site advertising agency misplaced their javascript file
(naughty).
(4) when Netscape discovers that a javascript or CSS file that a page
"needs" is missing, it erases the page that "needs" it and gives you an
error (silly).
So, whenever you load a page using that advertising agency, it inserts a
javascript request into the page you're viewing, your browser discovers
that the javascript file it is requesting doesn't exist, and your
browser tells you so.
Turn off javascript and your browser never requests the javascript file
and never discovers that it is missing. You still see the ads, though.
I'm sure you're thrilled about that :*)

Set up an internet connection for a friend last night, and what's
the first site everyone tries (and always works)?
This was an old PC with an old version of IE on it, we just got
what looked like the page headers at the top of the page, and nothing
else worked atall. The background was the same orange colour as usual.

I'd call it road centerline stripe yellow but that's too long to say.
Been wondering if the changes will get back again or another revamped set of
pages are in the works still. The response last time wasn't overly
negative, just never going to please everyone.
