An external BACKGROUND GIF requires one extra net access.
A BODY specifying BGCOLOR and TEXT color require none.

An external stylesheet which specifies a background GIF requires
two extra net accesses.
An external stylesheet that specifies a background color and text color
requires one extra net access.
