OK, I know it's off topic but I'm sort of stuck for the moment.

I've been setting up a friends machine to use Compuserve on the
Internet, and the PPP script doesn't seem to work.

I suspect the problem is that I've been trying to connect via
a local Mercury network rather than a genuine Compuserve
point of presence. Can someone please either send me details of
a script that will allow me to connect via one of the networks,
or the telephone number of a genuine London Compuserve POP.

I don't have the machine at the moment and I don't have a 
Compuserve account and he goes back to Rome tomorrow, so I'm in
a bit of a rush and would appreciate a quick answer if possible.

BTW, if you think the Demon helpline is bad, you ought to try the
Compuserve one. Totally impossible.
