I was sorry to see you drop out of the mainstream, but I can understand. It is too bad that BellSouth can't get their ancillary services act together. My DSL connectivity has always been great, but if the "free" services that we are supposed to be getting don't work, what is the point. Since they just outsourced their business web hosting to IBM, perhaps this might be the light at the end of the tunnel. They might actually look hard at doing the same for the other services that they also know nothing about. The mystery of the entire exercise has never ceased to amaze me. They are either one of the most incompetent companies in this field or they really are too stupid to care. Perhaps both? burris
