Netcom's terms and conditions specify that you may not leave a
connection inactive, nor may you run programs designed to "prod"
the connection every so often to make it LOOK active. If they
can prove you're doing that, they have the right to terminate
your account.

Unlimited access does not mean dedicated line.
