If SBC Yahooligans didn't use PPPoE I would be a loyal fan. I used to annoy
their Hindu outpost regularly about what their server paid attention to (MAC,
POTS #, Rising Sign) but they would only give me a static set of ip addresses
to go away and agree with me that with XP's PPPoE on th miniport that their
dsl software was more lialiablity than a boon. The microwave is tame, the
wireless phones can't even pick up eachother's signals and the neutrons
emanating from the Chinese only politely seek space again~ My problems are
definitely real or perceived spy activity or overzealous
software marketeers with of course the omnipresent superstars of the WWW-
smut/real love/hybrid/virtual relationship consultants..they are like zombie
things at every click. Seriously, I work military IT for many moons and never
a "forum" or therapy session for even windows workstations. Like the
discipline in that environ -worth the potential firing squad or court martial
for skylarking on he net~
