Drew, that RS site (Senditnow.org) that you suggested previously to get around RS's awkward bastard nature, do you know what the "code" is that you have to insert along with the RS link?

I do. Click on Test Internet Speed and hit one of the Google links, then enter in the code it gives you - like 2593 is what I got.

Worked? You must be taking up all their bandwidth, because apparently their server has 175% load!!!

Nah, I've not tried yet, but it's a solution I'm endeavouring to put into practice lol!
EDIT - just tried to open the test internet speed thing, I need to get Firefox to view the fucking page lol...

See, you need it now.

Dammit lol. I don't suppose there's a sneaky way around that, is there?
Originally posted by drewhiggins[..]
Are you asking to know ways around things? You know we don't do that on here...
Originally posted by WojBhoy[..]
I mean around having to download Firefox? I can't see how that's something that we "don't do on here"...if it is, please correct me

I meant as well asking to get around things - like circumventing something. Doesn't matter anyway...check above.

Argh, I'm confused, no matter, I wasn't being serious lol. Isn't it circumvention of a sort to use senditnow.org anyway?

It is, but what are RS gonna do about it. But if something else works, and works well enough, why not. They were stupid enough to change their code and the way things work to advantage of others, so take advantage while it lasts. Plus I don't feel like counting cats tonight anyway...
