i second that, having a small cache may have worked fine in 1993 but these days its next to useless. and its not just binaries groups either, when you get a thread with a few hundred posts in it where people insist on posting to the bottom of a message and retaining all that has gone before you soon find yourself with a lot of broken threads.
now i've got that off my chest i can get on with 2004 :) cheers bruce
When browsing alt.binaries.pictures.wallpaper, for example, I would click on say 5 walls to display (so they'd all load nearly simultaneously), and when they were all downloaded, if I was lucky there'd be 4 left in the cache... Not the way to go for me, that's for sure ;) -- Lenroc
