im only on dialup with a 250mb download limit, and it appears that by using MSN and this forum monthly it uses the whole 250mb.Does anyone know if the temp files or cache or whatever is enough to do this?If so i need to cut down coz my lsat bill was huge!I occasionally download pics but other than that nothin. Any ideas?

well i dunno about you but my temp files hangs around a few gig.
so id say its possible, you could use 250mb pretty quick.
i manage to waste 13 gig a month so anythings possible

250mb is a fair bit on dialup, when I was on dialup I would try to *leech* 20mb demos and spend ages. I used to push about 400mb/month doing this which is extremely pathetic. I think there must be something wrong because msn and toymods would not use that much surely.

250Mb is nothing on dialup (or you aren't using it properly). I was pulling in 5Gb a month on 56k dialup. I now pull in 20Gb a week on 512/128 ADSL

Cool, I wonder when internode (whom I'm with because they had the 12gig plan first), will have something similar?
But the good thing is my 12gig is truely just download only, my uploads arn't counted.  Telstra can go fuck themselves for their $95/month 3gig plan I used to be on that counted up and downloads plus their unreliable connections on top of that pissed me off even more.
As for what to download, just put on bittorrent and let it go wild.
