Mind you, it helps for the much more frequent cases of lightning strikes further away and of dumbass neighbors playing with arc-welders and bandsaws.

o.it was nailed down to my desktops motherboard being fried(got thru the surge protector)....my cable modem is fried......
Chances are it didn't fry the the power supply... It could have just as easily gone through the cable modem and through the ethernet cable... That's why even with a surge protector you should spend the extra dough to get a protector that allows for coaxile cables to be passed though it, same goes with telephone cords as well... You can have a power surge through the phone line as well...
Something kind of like this is perfect for the broadband users plus it comes with a backup time of up to 60 minutes after the power goes out, so you won't automatically lose everything you were working on... Link Here

anyone know off a good program with maybe a free trial to speed up this d*mn dial up connection ??? omg its SLOW
Try this link: http://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php
They have a freeware utility program there called TCP Optimizer. Download that and give it a whirl. The site says it works on any connection type, from dial-up to Gigabit+. :o
If your not sure what to do in the program, there is a FAQ there to help ya out.
The weather channel said the Central Time Zone(in the U.S) broke a record of over 500 tornadoes in a month. How's that for stormy weather?
