I remember someone posted recently a freeby program that lets you download all the files (photos, vids, etc) on a web page somehow. Anyone remember what this software was called / where to get it?

TIA

if i get a second computer at home can i use my cable modem and have two different useres online at the same time?

seems like it's no different than having two browsers up at the same time. i understand each computer has an individual number that will let AT&T know the differece... any one know?

p.s. i'm too lazy to ask this in a differenct thread.

Rob,

You can do this to ways, one is easy and one is a pain, so I will tell you the easy way. And no, ATT doesn't mind if you do.

Buy a cable router, plug that into your cable modem, and then plug you network cables out of your PC into that. All set.

The download program that I use is Download Accelerator - www.downloadaccelerator.com ,
this allows you to have multiple connections for 1 file (which in theory maxes out your own connection) and also lets you resume/pause files.

The wonders of NAT.

If you don't want to purchase a router you can always set up a linux box on an old 486 or something do to the ip masquerading.

that would be the hard route. more trouble than it is worth, unless you want to learn. i had an old 486 running windows and winproxy with 2 nics for a couple years before wireless came out. worked fine, but considering a wap is the same as a wireless router, i went with a new router.

Mark - I have Real Download, which does something similar. But you still have to click on each damn file one by one and start it off :(
