Have you tried Earthlink?  Call 1-800-555-1212 and ask for the Earthlink
800
number.  I think its located in CA.  I tryed CompuServe, Prodigy, AOL,
GNN
and then Earthlink.  Earthlink is by far the very best.  Earthlink
offers
unlimited Internet access and unlimited online time for $19.95 a month.
I
can stay online 24 hours a day for 30 day of the month and not get any
extra
charges.  When I tried the other services they all offered 5 hours of
online
time with an extra charge of $2.50 for each hour over the 5 hour limit
and
internet access was limited with additional charges for places that were
off
limits all for $19.95 a month.  Earthlink even offers a Satelite Dish
online
link that allows you to download stuff at a very fast rate of something
like
130KB per second. With the satellite dish you can surf the web many
times
faster.  I don't have a satellite dish but a friend does and he can
downloads 6 megs file in about 46 seconds.  I tag files and start them
downloading at night then go to bed leaving the computer on and
downloading
all night long.  I downloaded 37 megs of stuff a few nights ago. I am
not
limited to 1 meg downloads. Hope this gives you an idea of what
Earthlink is
like.  Also if an Earthlink member gets someone new to join they get a
FREE
month of Earthlink.
