Yes, I'm sorry, I phrased that badly. I remember what you said. But it is
more use for the archives if I give an actual reference. You had already
said that you don't want to solve it because you don't regard it as a
problem, nor even apparently as an irritant. So I didn't search for your
particular case.

No, I quite see that! You have a large usage. But I'm not sure that I would
call it a small cap!! None-the-less, my original point still stands. The
net install CD and downloading only what you need was a good choice of
solution to limiting your bandwidth use.
