Cut them off. And to the rest who will flame me. Understand this - CRL ,
Netcom and others run a fine business. I like to think of them as TELCO
DATA OFFICES. The telephone company would never stand for a customer they
considered a security problem and would do whatever necessary to cancel
that customer. Even if it ment fighting the PUC, courts etc. These
providers need to be free to run the business of business. This is no
longer a game. Congrats to Netcom !
