You get 15 seconds per question. The browser isn't locked, but unless you can type 120 WPM, there isn't much you can bounce to and from in time to effectively cheat that way. As soon as the test was complete, I remembered about three or four of the answers I couldn't recall while under the time constraints. Then, while typing out the questions, I remembered another two or three. -- Kevin M. (RPCV) -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
