These files can be downloaded to a scratch file with any web browser such as Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. The browser will usually give an approximate download speed in kilobytes per second(KB/sec). Multiply this speed times 10 to get the download speed in bits per second. If you have a high speed connection, use the 500 kbyte file or the 5 mbyte file to get a better approximation.
