  1. So... I was updating my security for my lan because I have now installed a file/print server, more on that later. I was scanning for spyware and viruses so that i dont have problems within the network. Here is my brother's adware report it is totally unreal... I didnt even know that much spyware even existed. I then scanned with seachbot and that found more!

  11. I said it was a waste because who would pay $40 per month for something that bursts at 1.5 and had a dependable speed of 300-900kbs? The stupid phone companies offer better dsl packages for less. I dont know about you but i will kill myself before paying $40 for a 300kbs connection. Also the test are running in very populated areas. Most likely there are other mediums for broadband available. The other comment is about data security.... Well I do have to disagree with you on the security of the network. Ethernet is the most secure... You dont have access to it if A.) you plug into the netowork itself or B.) you hack through the security features. On the other hand there is electical networking.... Now that is like having you internet and network on the same line. Just think of the hay day the hackers would have with the people that have a electrical networks.... You have direct access to their internet and their network!!! NO FIRE WALL....NOTHING. They could just sit there and watch packets come back and forth all day and the users would never even know it. Wireless is also plagued by this same problem, somewhat... You can get wireless internet access and have a wireless network. However i believe that they operate on different frequencies... That is why fortune 500 companies have been so slow at adapting wireless technology until recently. Now they have better security and they can some what control who sees the signal. Unless you dont have your network connected to the internet you are not totally secure. However, I see fewer security problems with ethernet than wireless or electrical networking.

  16. what a waste..... Hmm....It seems that ethernet is the only secure networking method.

  18. That is interesting...... I havent heard about any other isp who will uncap a line just to make sure that you are getting what you paided for. Since i am guessing you were on the 3.0mbs plan i an suprised that they uncapped you to 5.0mbs. Did they change your upload to?

    WHATS WRONG!!!

    Try the spyware thing, update your nic drivers, and do a tracert to your isp's homepage. If you find and router with a high ping then you know it is not you but if you dont...well lets hope it isnt you.
