No. It accepts the script based login just fine. It then changes gears to
PAP.
If I kill the script-based bit, then I never get to the PAP. BOTH are
necessary, which does seem faintly ridiculous. But perhaps not without
precedent; this is, after all, USWest.
(Maybe this whole thing has something to do with the takeover, since they
are now QWest. But it's probably just a coinicidence. It's no good asking
them. They don't seem to have a clue about much at all. In the course of
the last three months I have contacted tech support three times. They
didn't solve a single one of the problems.)
