Default CNET websites

SInce im on a 64K connection i really have trouble accessing CNET owned sites:

www.tv.com
www.gamespot.com
www.download.com


is there a way to open these sites in http://, text, low-grafix mode ?


I cant find the button that says so.
Or can i tweak my browser to make them open quick?

If you use Firefox, you can the ImgLikeOpera plugin to disable image loading. It helps a lot on slow connections.
