Two such isp's that come to mind are ihug and paradise. I use paradise and find the service excellent and they are one of the lowest cost isp's, with no set up charge so nothing to lose. Two problems I see with the Hotmail solution is that every time you go away from home you have to tell your correspondents to use your hotmail address, and hotmail suffers a terrible spam problem. (and the filters don't work!)	Guest (0)
