I've a question about connection speed & the IE7 security patch.?
I downloaded the latest IE 7 security patch and all went well. However, in the three days since I've noticed that my connection speed has dropped significantly (dial up....ok! ok! so I'm a cheap skinflint!). The day after my speed dropped from 52.0 kbps to 31.2 kbps. The second day my speed was back up to normal (52.0 kbps). Then today I've logged off and back on several times and have connection speeds from 32.0 down to 24.1 kbps. Did that download from Microsoft do something to my settings or is there some other cause?
You get the 10 hirly. I forgot; school'z out this week...probably a huge upswing in traffic on my ISP. Thanx.

Shouldn't have any bearing on your dial up speed. To narrow the problem, I'd call your internet provider. Maybe they are having problems.
