Better still, run an http listener on (for example) 127.0.0.2 port 80, using the appropriate /etc/hosts glue to map whatever hostnames you like to that address, and answer requests with null content; the remainder of the page will complete faster as a result. For extra credit, log the requests so you can browse the Host:/Referer: combinations. Stephen
