how bad does this blow

well i got an email today saying that i went over my 1.5 GB download bandwidthlimit for this week already. that means that i am stuck with 56k access till sunday. all i downloaded so far this week was patches for bf1942. I also played bf1942, would that take a lot of download bandwidth? any suggestions or ideas how to stop this again?

1.5GB in a week!!

I have a monthly allowance of 3GB a month!!

I suggest you start monitoring your usage a bit better. Does your ISP have a monitoring tool they use?

Cheers
Mick

well i found out the problem... the schools provided "mandatory" virus protection sucks worse than your limit. i deleted their garbage and ran system works 2003 and instantly found 2 viruses that were most likely sending crap to and from my computer. i went down to "ResCom" (residential computing office) and they were like "well i will send someone up to check it out... but you will have to wait till next tuesday." i just flipped on him saying that by then everything would be back to normal, and i will have gotten rid of the virus stuff. but they still cant let me go up to full speed. i have to wait till sunday morning

well we have limits too, 4GB but the connection speed rocks

i can live with that, i'm at 3.4 right now, but if i go over the limit i have to pay for every new MB, that really sucks, getting very expensive

Creatures

BTW multiplayer doesnt uses much! i play JKJA everyday and it doesnt affect it!
