DeVry leases from Sprint... and pay for bandwidth by the GB, which is why they don't let certain file extensions through the firewall (obviously not a fool-proof solution,) and normally _DO NOT_ want people downloading large files in general. At the CLUG meeting, we are hooked up to a different network which is not firewalled by DeVry, so please don't abuse it. -Mark _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
