I don't know about choking your broadband speed, but if you have the program Dreamweaver you can preview how long your pages will take to load at a variety of connection speeds if that's any help to you..

I didn't realise that feature was there, I'm new at this web stuff. Thanks Laguna. I'll play around with that.
