Yeah, gazz... I know exactly what you mean...
In-laws really can be anti-social !!!
(er, did you mean using the lap-top ?
Nah, it must be the
'out-laws' !)
SAMKNOWS isn't 'my' site ! I'm just posting a link to it to help others in the U.K. use a source of info that tells the truth about the normal ISP pigs. And pigs they mostly are.
Please examine the SAMKNOWS site very carefully and you will find the info you need to blow your garbage lying ISP away and find something better for you (of course, depending on your area).
Don't worry about most contracts with ISPs... You can fight them...
Study SAMKNOWS and forget the crisps and the beer when the out-laws visit you....
They'll get the hint in 5-10 years !
