I'm pleased that was not just my experience Richard.
Though I am intending to upgrade to Broadband in the near future,as a dial-up user I gave up waiting for the slow loading time necesitated by somebody's attempts to interest me in Heidi Klum wallpaper.
I might try again once I have Broadband,but I would say to anybody on Dial-up that they might like to consider this site "one to avoid".
