FYI there is a wget replacement called 'axel' in linux. eg instead of 'wget uri' it can be done as 'axel -a uri' The main advantage of axel is that it uses multiple parallel connections to speed up downloading. You may search to see if it is available in ubuntu. -- regards, ==================================================== GPG key 1024D/4434BAB3 2008-08-24 gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 4434BAB3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
