I wish the disk usage limit could be set higher than 999 MB.

**Snicker**, I use unlimited and a 15 day limit...never above 75MB and
there is quite a bit of world hoping done from this machine.

500MB and no day limit (had been using 60 - but then it was sticking around
120MB... When I went into A'tuin it went up to 160MB (yes, 40MB for one
world!) and I said 'ok I'm gonna make sure this stays forever, or at least
until I get a new computer'... and took off the 'expiry date' thingy...
Would use unlimited but not sure how the other apps on that 2 gig partition
(F:) would take it...

I am obviously forgetting the difference between connections here (modem
vs T1). With a modem you are much better off with a fixed limit and no
expire...my mistake.

Yeah I have a modem, and I'd like to have the fixed limit
instead of expiring, which I had to start using now.

My cache had been unlimited, but then my 1680 MB AW disk got full,
so I cleaned up a few megabytes and put a limit of 1670 MB,
so that it wouldn't go all the way down to 0 bytes again.
But then when I restarted AW, the limit had truncated to 999 MB
and half of my cache had been purged. Doh.
