Fixes two messages displaying Megabit (Mb) instead of
Megabyte (MB) and updates URLs.


Hello we are Ioannis Barkas (risc4all@yahoo.com) and
Nikos Barkas (doubl3nuts@yahoo.com).

The printed messages behaviour is not consistent as
one message is printed
with MB and the next two are printed with Mb.Also a
link is broken.

We sent the patch from diff -u as an attachment
because damn yahoo...can't even format an inline patch!
