Hi, I've just joined the 21st century and got my self a 1mb broadband connection, which should be up and running in the next few days. For work purposes, honestly ...alright to play games online. Anyway, what i wanted to know was assides from the fast surfing are there any sites that i should visit that take advantage of the high-speed connection? Thanks for any recommendations.

Good flash websites such as newgrounds.com or redvsblue.com for starters.

Make sure you get a firewall in place ASAP! If you need reasons, look at Cerek's thread on spyware...

Only if you are a member of the 'Penguin Army', and download or host ISO's, and BSDs. If not, some "other" areas may be for high speed. Hopefully you have a well enough PC behind that connection to engage in online games.

Don't talk to me about spyware... I spent a month trying to remove a devious VX2 variant that was unremovable by adaware and its VX2 plug-in. had to do it by had, deleting files, registry keys, these people are little better than people breaking into your house and fitting a hidden camera and making your TV show their adverts while their their.

Anway, i have zone-alarm installed and spy-bot resident protecting my settings.

You have taken the step from Stone Age man to Modern Man, Aragorn1? Congratulations! :D
