What is wrong with grandma having internet access? Yes I had to pay for my own. Yes I had troubles. I am an employee and we get less resources than consumers do because I cost money and consumers make money. Not a problem for me. Lastly what are you talking about? On 9/10/2001 I was in Virginia at a security meeting. On 9/11/2001 I was in my bed in NYC at 1am. In the morning I was a first responder with an ambulance to the WTC. We had an AOL truck full of equipment rolling from Virginia that SAME DAY. So don't tell me that it was done for money. AOL rolled equipment as soon as we were sure everyone was safe between the New York and Virginia offices. I guess it would be better if we all did nothing to help anyone because then nobody could say we did it for publicity. -Josh To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
