I was just wondering if anyone knew of a good, free words per minure counter, I would just like to see how many words I can now type, as the last time I did the test was a few years ago. Thanks

Works fine with me - you *did* press the 'done' button afterwards, right?

What browser are you using?

Though I admit it's not as impressive as that test a few years back, if that's what you're referring to...

Im runnin internet explorer 6, when i press done it just starts the thing again, it doesnt actually give me an amount or anything, il try it again.

Oh ive got it now, it was because i was pressing enter instead of clicking done. Cheers for that Grojlach!

Make sure you don't have any popup-killers installed, as you get the statistics in a popup afterwards.
