I generally end up updating twice a week. I generally wait to sync when I see something updated that interests me. I just keep a eye on it until something gets changed. Heck, on those slow times, I may not update but once a week. I don't think I've ever set it up as a cron job or anything. Be my luck, I'd sync and 20 minutes later, something I want to update will pop up and I just missed it. lol Anyway, looking forward to them getting this long sync time back to normal. I'm sure someone is back there with a hammer beating some sense into it. ;-) Dale :-) :-)
