Slow downloads
If you're using a slow modem connection you'll find that
sites rich in multimedia elements will take longer to download. If browsing for
text-based information, you could either:
- Use our 'text only' service or
- Turn off the images setting in your browser.
Download times also
vary depending on the number of people visiting the site. With very high demand
our servers may slow down a little.
Browsers
Our site is optimised for Versions 3 and above of
Microsoft and Netscape browsers.
