Thanks for that, salival. Gave quite a speed boost. Looks as though I should probably download a dump and then try to get the data from that rather than risking an IP ban but that'll have to wait until I have a larger hard disk (hopefully that won't have to wait until I can fork out for a whole new system as well).

But... I'd just rewritten my script to make it far more efficient and it was working rather well until there was a huge crack, like a massive spark of electricity, and my computer died. It is now refusing to turn on.

Fortunately my h340 doesn't appear to have suffered any damaged, despite being plugged into the USB and transferring my collection of John Frusciante albums at the time. Unfortunately I only have a Win98 system now so I can't get any data off (or onto) it.

So don't expect me to be able to provide anything for a while.

Good luck to the rest of you.
