I am running kali under ppp.exe because it locks up under pppshare.. I 
experienced VERY slow gameplay w. 3 people while running kali\ppp.exe.. 
Is pppshare much faster? I wouldn't know :( Any suggestions for speeding 
up game play (I am using war2kali).. ALso, I get the "creater ended 
terminated game" a lot of the time.. wassup?

Well I don't know about you but I get about the same game play that you  
have mentioned above. I cannot play with PPPShare at all. It not only 
locks up with Kchat, but once I do get into a game, it locks up on me in 
the WarCraft II Chat Room. I have resigned myself to playing with the 
ppp.exe as that is the only one that works for me. And yes I get the same 
thing you do once you get in a game. Game Creator Terminated Game, is 
very common for me. I have tried everything to get both the ppp programs 
to work with QEMM, No QEMM, CD Driver, No CD Driver, and every 
combination that I could think of. As for what I have, I have a 486DX33 
with 8 meg of Ram, AMI Bios, dated 2/92 (I think), Mitsumi 4X CD Drive, 
Diamond SS Pro video card with 1 Meg of Ram, Maxtor 240Meg HD, and a US 
Robotics 28.8 V.Everything External Modem with an internal 16650AFN 
serial card. Let me know if you find something out.

I bet its the USR. They suck heh. Me and my friend both logged on the same provider 
which has the $500 USR rackmont V.Everythings. He has a USR 28.8 V.34 and I have a 
noname brand. We ping each other in KaliChat and both got around 385-435. This sucks 
majorly since we should have gotten 100-300. When I connect to a Kali server I can 
usually ping at 100-300. So either my provider sucks <probably heh> or the USRs suck 
and thats even more likely.
