Hi Michael!
I am very thankful for your comments..
You have given me some peace of mind and hope...
As I have said in my previous post, I will see within a seven (7) day period how my speedy behaves and I will post my results.
I'll start next Monday @ 6:00AM AST.
As a matter of fact, I am tempted to monitor it also for a longer period and will post the results also.
Probably something interesting will come out of it to help other list members now and in the future who might have the same concerns.
Thank you all.
I like this list! Oh yeah!
;-)
