Hi Cody,

Yes, downloading mp 3's on the bn does take a deal of time, though 3 hrs is a 
REALLY long time.  *grin* This is to be expected, since the processor used 
isn't very fast, and, in most cases, dialup internet access is being used.  
Like I said before, everything that you download using the bn gets temporarily 
stored in your keysoft system disk.  Therefore, if you're downloading a 4.5 mb 
file, you must have at least 4.5 megabytes of free space in your system disk.

Also, Bob, and I never said that clearing temp files and/or cookies would 
guarantee access to a webpages.  Quite a number of webpages are not accessible 
to the bn, but we were just offering suggestion as things you could do in order 
to make sure that the page, is indeed, inaccessible.  I also agree that you 
shouldn't delete cookies unless absolutely necessary because they contain 
useful information, but I already said that in another post.  HTH, Laura

Luther King did, which is get killed one way or the other.  Because people only 
like dead saints, and I refuse to be a saint or a martyr." (John Lennon, 1969)
