come on. we all have had that time when you are downloading a reasonably big file and get some ridiculosly big number that makes you fall out of your chair laughing.

mine was... mind you that this was a 10 mb file downloading on a windows 98 that was 7 years over due for a service... 328 thousand million years 12 months 12 days 11 hours 59 miniutes and 1 second. :mrgreen:

My internet's really good too. My slowest time was when I was running a highly computer hungry game, a virus scan, three or for tabs on internet, and I got an estimated time of around 4 hours. It then corrected to 1 min. 8-)
