It has been asked before. I use a z prefix for pages that are temporary. After a while I can collect all my webpages in a folder and click on the "arrange by name" tab. All of the z pages + photos will be grouped together so I can delete them all in one go. -- Simon M. |

My ISP has a limit of 20MB, so I'll run out of room if I don't delete them. Some big files (600MB in total) I farm out to another site which makes its money out off offering webspace for the money it makes from the phone call. My ISP is a free dial up, so if I posted that newspaper clipping on the other site it would cost money. -- Simon M. |

Hey, you're managing to read usenet, which is more than a lot of internet users are able to figure out these days. Bottom posting, too. I think you're putting yourself down unnecessarily. -- Danny Colyer (the UK company has been laughed out of my reply address) <URL:http://www.speedy5.freeserve.co.uk/danny/> "He who dares not offend cannot be honest." - Thomas Paine |
