HI:

In general I have had good service from Istar since I signed on from 
another provider.  However, I have had problems shutting down after 
running in good shape and signing in.  If your company is not giving out 
the top software up to date etc and knows of any other ways to have their 
customers machines tweeked to top perfomance which will reduce long term 
problems.  Is there any information such as how to download new Netscape, 
new Pegasus, update baud for higher compression fro source.  This should 
come in very easy readable format from Istar.  I realize that it is 
expensive to have teckies helping all the time but this is not a phone 
system where a four year old can learn it in a few minutes.  Remember it 
is your customers that are your biggest advertisers, if people are not 
happy they will go to another provider like I did.

thanks for asking,

Gary W. Steele
