 Subject: how to tell the download time of a file
 
 
 Could someone advise me how or where to find out the length of time, by 
 dial-up connection, how long it will take to download a file?
 I have a screen saver I want to place on one of my pages for download and 
 would like to give approximate times for the download.

approxiamte times:
