I found out about SG at a kkk meeting, someone mentioned that SG would increase my d/l speeds and I could get to the main kkk website much faster so I did it and have been compeled to the diversity of this place ever since... it's been a year and a half now...





*note* I am kidding about the kkk thing so don't get your panties all bunched up people*

I was searching to find out wth was wrong with my @Home, then I find out it was all normal. Increased my speeds a bit, but not much.

Been year for a year and a month, but I don't really post to much. I just like to get lil' giggles here and there while trying to learn things. YOU GUYS ARE GREAT!

We where having alot of problems with the puter and I found it thru searching for help on my service providers help page.

I started following links and there was Speedguide. Got the help I needed to fix this thing up, from some great people I've met here.
