Hi Erich - sterm will download using the much faster CompuServe "B" protocol,
which is why we all use it here.

When you're ready to download a file (in this example, after BROwsing), you
could type "dow /proto:b" which will prompt you for a filename on your disk to
go to, and all is automatic after that.

Or better: leave here and "go default" which is a free area on CIS where you
can set your default transfer protocol to "B", and then you'll always download
using it by default here on CIS.  Then you can just do a "dow" command on a
file and CIS will automatically use the B protocol.

This sounds harder even than it is... just GO DEFAULT and follow the prompts
for default transfer mode for Permanent sessions/settings.  Then come back and
try doing a download.  Yell if have troubles.  best - kev
