PE> That is EXACTLY right.

DD> Fucking bullshit!

Fraid not, some NZer with ear to ear bone kept raving
on that it was just user error, you could certainly make
Lews modem work as well as yours. Absolutely guaranteed.

Guess who looks a complete fucking dork now we know that
you have one of the best lines in Aust and THATS the reason
you never saw any of the problems that Lew was seeing.

DD> Lewin said "all USR Couriers are fucked because he is not
DD> able to connect to any of them" or words to that effect.

Oh, sure, he is even worse than you are doing the mindless stuff.

DD> Lewin connected here and transferred files without any problems.

Thats supposed to prove a damned thing is it Dave ?
