Stumbling through the Mickeyland Knowledge Base looking for other somethings last night, I did see a comment about a reduced capability for "web chat" and other "real-time" hookups that could be helped by a one-click change to turn off a "quality monitoring" mode in one of the protocols. Since it wasn't related to what I was looking for, I didn't make notes. It will be a while before I get enough coffee down to face getting back to look.

Also noted and postponed; the "Custom Install" at Microsoft Updates was offering a new version (optional) multimedia download, that I postponed because the 40 MB download would have taken over an hour on my connection, and the same speed limit doesn't encourage my use of Flash when I can avoid it.
