What is the "time to download this attachment"? What does it do? Is it the time that I take to download it? For that you would need to know what my connection speed is, something that you cannot easily know, and guessing is just wrong since there can be both modem, dsl and other broadband users.

Pretty sure it is an estimated time for download.

Very nice hack - does it detects my connection automaticly?

It probably factors in the speed it took to load the page on your browser and aproximates the speed you're running

maybe you should read above

Maybe an option can be added so that the user can pick the speed they are on to get the estimated time to download.
