Seems they are throttling text newsgroups :-( Been slow here for a few days and, yes, I'm with VM. Cretins there think fora are wonderful and can't understand why we would want to use newsgroups. I've also had a couple of days with web connection stopping altogether. Looks like I'll have to go onto their forum (yeuch!) and complain. -- Graham Davis, Bracknell It was raining cats and dogs and I fell in a poodle. [Chic Murray(1919-1985)] |

As I understand it, Virgin's new "protocol-specific" throttling management system affects both text and binary Usenet newsgroups indiscriminately between 5 pm and midnight on weekdays and noon to midnight at weekends. Consequently, slow downloads may be more noticeable at certain times. Seems odd a cable network borking anything. What reason do they give? |
