No thats just for the net (Going to get back into things I did before).

You'll get popups with everything, you just need to run spieware to get rid of all the shit.

www.downloads.com underthe net section for anti spieware tools.

i got the same as jim....altho i think at the moment i saw an advert on tv for bt broadband at a special plrice of 19.99 per month qwith free installation connection etc...which is a bargain cos i paid 50 to et the modem and get connected...

as for pop ups, i now use a program called Mozilla....its a web browser, html editor and email client all in one...best of all its free!! just download it...its one of these anti-microsoft thingys so its free and good...plus first time a pop up tried to pop up it asked me "do u want pop ups?" and i said no and i havent had a single one since!!

similer programs i have come across lately is openoffice...again a anti msn jobby which is the equivilant to Office...got ur spread sheets and word processor....free again!!

My NTL is about £18 a month for 600k, but you get what you pay for... my connection is crap..frequently not working etc, and if you try to call to make a complaint, you wait on hold for 2 hours.
