Re: Stupid Question

It depends on the browser though. Password fields aren't automatically saved by default.

Re: Stupid Question

The super highway analogy is ridiculous.

Re: Stupid Question

Yeah...lol

"The World Wide Web. What did we do before the Internet? The answers to life’s great mysteries are on the Internet….you can research Geneology, Recipes, History, Political candidates, school projects. On and on…. Let’s take a survey…How many of you are on the Internet every day? Most of us, I guess.
The internet is often referred to as the “INFORMATION SUPERHIGHWAY” here we are, speeding along, finding info at light speed…then all of a sudden…

BAMM! You hit a toll booth. Here’s what’s happening. Years ago, when telecom fees were deregulated, Internet Service Providers began to charge more for connection fees. They promised to upgrade and have a fiberoptic system installed by now. But they never did it. Now, they HAVE to upgrade. Web sites have all this multimedia that requires more broadband to run….websites need more capacity now than they ever had. ISP’s want TOLL BOOTHS. They want somebody ELSE to pay for the upgrading they have to do. They are not happy with your $39 or $49 or $59 a month connection fee."


hehehe...lol

I pay 10 dollars a month for T1 shared with 10 other residents. I love pilot programs.
