My wife decided that since MSN is offering a $200 shopping spree at best buy, we should switch isp's and drop prodigy and go to them. After hours of her nagging, I reluctantly agreed.

Now I can't get on the internet with linux!

I tried looking up all the settings, I tried guessing the settings, I've tried everything I can think of.

You people gotta help me! I hate using windows for the internet! I miss Konquerer! Help me please!

Hmm, do they allow you to connect to the internet without their 'program.'

I don't think AOL does either...

Better be glad this ain't the days of MSN 2.0, the black cd of death. Something goes wrong, re-install windows (no joke)

Wow that sounds like what I was yelling at the computer yesterday as I was trying to reinstall MSN.

Two talk show guys on the short-wave (5070 around midnight EST) were joking about the devious ways of Bill Gates. Microsoft is so damn monopolysoft. AOL also does their best to be a monopoly.

Can't you guys get a local broadband setup this lets you use any browser? It is $30/month here for cable connection as long as there is also cable TV subscription being paid for.

I actually reinstalled MSN 5.4, which uses Internet Explorer. But I am trying to wait for AT&T to let us have Cable Modem connectivity in our area.

The problem is that stupid deal my wife just HAD to have involved a 2 year contract.

And I live out in the middle of the boonies, so the only way I'm getting broadband is via duplex sattelite, which is a bit pricey.

Damn, sorry pitch.

Yeah, I always used to try and find a way to get AOL to connect using a direct dialup, never could...
