Ian there are umpteen sites on the web that will test your speed for free.
Just type in broadband speedtest and you will be fine.

Should be getting towards 3/4 done by now Andy. Twisted Evil

It's the last quarter which takes longest - it sort of slows down exponentially. Best get off to work and leave it running until you come home again tomorrow. Cool

Seriously Andy that is slow. On my best speed of 4.ish it generally takes about an hour 20. I realise there are a lot of mitigating factors but that does seem very slow.

I've done THREE West Europe downloads at work in the last month (two bought from the website and my one today).
I think work is 2GB+ and it has taken a bit under 3 hours each time.

Blimey, maybe i shouldn't be too hasty to knock my BB connection.

Andy have you tried a download from home rather than the "alternate" location, some companies IT departments can kill a download automatically if above a certain size? - I wouldn't even bother browsing the net any longer where I am, its easier using the phone - Mike
