Many people still dial-up and pay ISP charges by the minute.

Who? In the US this could be considered an IQ test. There's no reason to pay more the $15 or $20 for a connection.

I don't use this because I need a connection suitable for a network, but this is a perfectly good freebie connection: netzero.net

If you have a large monitor the ad banner is tiny and easy to place out of the way.

It does ask first, but because I am on a T1, it is seemless. I click on OK, and it is done.

You can also set the feature off.

FWD:If the gov't is correct MSFT may have to disable the interconnectivity between the net and Office 2k. After all this is what their original case was all about and today they further embellish the argument with the proposition that such exposure to the net could do the consumer harm. Huh? JFD
