I think you already know the answer to that one...

[wormpaul]

Just give him answer..

we`re not all that smart..

it`s 5 a user k:

I just open a few ads into a background tab (shift+ctrl+click in opera) that way I dont have to wait until they load or watch them, but can continue browsing the forum, and you guys still get the money from it.

It's 5 files downloading at any given time - if I'm not mistaken.

About RARing / 7ZIPing. If the majority of the bandwidth is games being transfered (which I think it is) you really should consider compressing the games a bit more. I have Ascencancy rared at 31MB, zip file at Abandonia is 41MB, 7zip can compres a little bit more than rar. So I think you can decrease overall banadwidth for about 20%.

But not everyone cann access RARs. We've had this discussion before.

Here are lots of free unrar files for many platforms.

Where can I get 7zip?

[DSmidgy]

7-zip

Interface isn't as stylish as RARs'. And for ultra compression you need a lot of RAM (512MB or better 768MB).
