High data useage.

[ausguy]

Hi, I hope someone may be able to offer some solutions to a high data useage that I experience when I operate through my Yahoo site?  To-day I signed up with Smart Live Casino but not playing just yet.

I live in the Sydney Australia area.

I have Windows Vista and use Virgin mobile broadband @ 8 GB /month.  I do not have a landline phone as it is not practical as I rent in a shared house (too many freeloaders using the phone etc. )

ADSL 2 + would be good as they have high GB @ much cheaper rates than mobile but landline required.   

I have used an r n g site (I've listened to posters on VLS  &  since flicked it).     

This r n g site was Yukon Gold part of the British Virgin Island casino group.  When you sign up with them they send down their log in program complete with icon. 

When I initially started using it I did so through my Yahoo page.  I was shocked at the high rate of data consumption.


I eventually discovered that I could log on via the Yukon Gold icon staight from the windows screen.  This bypassed the use of the Yahoo screen.  Data consumption slowed greatly to about 20% of what it was through Yahoo.

The current problem I have with Smart Live is the only access they offer is through a home page such as Yahoo? I have checked with them on this & they said that's all they have?

Any advice on this would be appreciated as I only have basic computer knowledge.  Thanks in advance.

Mr Moderator please delete this post as I've solved the problem via my local computer shop.  It was very simple all I had to do was click minimize when on Yahoo.  Thanks  ausguy.
