Something is causing huge downloads when I go to some pages. Example: http://www.maast.org/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=23040&pos tdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
page 1 and 2 of this thread seem to keep downloading until??? I cancel the page when it gets to about 10 megs. Most pages are less than 200k.

Is it me or does someone have some really large attachments of some kind.

Using HughesNet we have download limits before internet access becomes useless without warning, so I have to watch for this stuff.

Not sure what you mean by "causing huge downloads", i went to the link you posted and it loaded without a problem...are you using dial up or high speed?
