| 168342 | 2003-08-18 06:29:00 | Why does your post make me think that you're a Paradise employee trying to get free advertising? | somebody (208) | ||
| 168343 | 2003-08-18 06:33:00 | Some people are so, so suspicious. :) I will answer on Steves behalf as he lives just round the corner, and say, "No he isn't" |

| 168344 | 2003-08-18 06:37:00 | Ok. But other people have been told off by the Moderators for advertising on here. | somebody (208) | ||

As Terry says "no I don't work for them,I just use their cable as a way to get on the net & do my email" ;) If every isp did virus checking of emails that went through their servers it would certainly make a lot of virus's redundant. Just my view & not necessarily the views of paradise.net or any of its employee's Cheers Steve :D |

| 168346 | 2003-08-18 07:07:00 | Same e-mail as I got from Telstra-Clear, just about word for word. | Pheonix (280) | ||
| 168347 | 2003-08-18 07:21:00 | Why don't they do it for free for all their customers - why should I pay more for what should be a standard service anyway? After all, doesn't ISP stand for internet SERVICE provider? It's in their best interest to do this so let them do it as a matter of course. | andy (473) | ||
| 168348 | 2003-08-18 07:42:00 | Same as what Clear just emailed me. I wonder if I can opt out - I'd rather decide which emails are SPAM rather than have them block emails I actually WANT to receive (I've had spam blockers block genuine personal emails just because of a word or two). I do also think it should be free to everybody, else what's the point. I'm on one of their cheaper plans because it's a cheaper plan - I don't want to have to pay extra for it. Mike. |

| 168349 | 2003-08-19 06:28:00 | Doesn't Xtra provide free email virus checking? I'm sure quite a few other ISPs have similar services. | somebody (208) | ||
| 168350 | 2003-08-19 06:34:00 | Just speculating here, as I dont really know, but as far as charging those using dial-up, and free for those with high speed, maybe it's a lot easier for ISPs like Paradise to have as many customers as possible on cable or ADSL, and thus reduce the large banks of 56K modems at their end? | Terry Porritt (14) | ||
