when gollum had the ring, Sauron did not know it, not for a very long time. When Bilbo saw the ring, Sauron knew it was out there and the ring want to get back was far stronger. The ring did still have a bad effect on Bilbo, and you cannot know how quickly Smeagol was affected. [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]
