Hrmm...tversity not suppose to be discussed?
Ok nvm anyways 'bout the proxy thingy, let me get this straight;
After when my pc links with my ps3, whenever I wanna download something from ps3 via the store; I need to check my pc for the logs and copy the url package then I put the url onto the left field and the right field will actually ask me for the .pkg file.
So now the thing is I need to download the app/game/demo via the url then when I got the file in .pkg format I point it on the right field of the proxy.
Correct?
Then I go back to my ps3 and run?

Urmm...using the proxy now....downloaded like 1GB of demo from my pc and now from my ps3 I click resume-all,
It seems to me its gone slightly faster a lil' bit but didn't quite what I expected....I expect when I click resume-all it straight away copies the content like copying a file from a pc to another....
But instead its still kinda slow like going 1% to 2% in like 10 secs....
Is it normal?

Arr lets say I don't want my PSN id to be assosiated with my mail account...how am I suppose to do that?
As far as I know One PSN ID is tied to 1 mail account.

Hrmm crap...my less than a year old ps3 seems to be acting weird...
When I load my SFIV inside ...it didn't autorun...okay nvm although its weird...
2nd time (few hrs later) when I pop it in...it works again (autorun) but this time the loading screen take ages....whole screen goes blank...so I took out the cd and I restarted it...
My concern is this....it hangs!!...out of my PS1, PS2, it never hangs before....so I was wondering is it normal that it freezes/hangs occasionally?

Guys, was wondering whether does your ps3 is hooked to the internet 24/7? or do you plug it on only when you guys want to online?
The reason being said is because I notice whenever my newly bought games wanted to do a patch update, the screen just goes blank and I need to restart my ps3.

Just had a long discussion with the tech support from sony. Those guys are amazing, very precise and knowledgable compare to some tech supports I've been through.
I suggest if you guys have a problem you can call them directly.
My issue was having some problem with bd games; intermitten crash during loading.
