gah, stupid things not signing in now, you've cursed it. Pretty much the only reason I like MSN is because i've had problems with my PC and a few prorams and all my games only run when Messengers running, weird, but it's true, messenger always takes a few mins after my PCs started to load...
Other than that, I like the people on my contact list, and i've got more on there than on ICQ
also, also....this is definatly a MSN problem, because my modem is still as super duper as it was.erm, 20mins ago, before messenger started playing up.

if they say they are, your ISP is usually tellin lies, unless you can still surf.

I find this a lot, with Freeserve. The little computer screens in the corner ar still there, so I think 'm connected. But triying to get to any web page doesn't work, and after about two minutes, I get the connection dialog box up.I just wish they'd tell you instantly when you've been cut off.

But I think MSN is great, and it usually works fine. The only time it really goes wrong is when my connection cut's, which is Freeserve fault... gggrr.

I find with Modems and MSN Servers:

Modems: They're not always connected even if they say they are, your ISP is usually tellin lies, unless you can still surf, in which case its a.......

MSN: they always reset their servers when they think it's not too usy, it's quite annoying if your having a big convo and all of a sudden you think everyones ignoring you, but in fact ::30mins later:: you get a flood of messages saying "why are you ignoring me, speak you imbocile!" if you can't sign in, it sounds like a MSN problem.

Er, articulate? No wonder you like MSN, you appear to have no grasp of "punctuation theorem" or even sentence structure.

Anyway, I still maintain that IRC is the best chat medium ever. I suggest you try it (but not on our room. Or even server).

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
10/10
Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
