I've always used aol but that's mainly because for the last 8 years I have gotten it for free. Well, now that aol has done away with board monitors I'll have to start paying again and with that in mind I'd like to get a few opinions on other services. I'm thinking of switching to Earthlink. Any opinions on that or any other isp or do you think for the money aol is the best ?

Living in a rural location we were stuck with dial up for many years. About 2 years ago a new service became available to us. It is a wireless modem which receives a signal from a satellite somewhere nearby. It is considered high speed, about 600K. If we lived in town I would have a cable connection. I will never, ever have dial up again if I had a choice.

I have thought about going with Cox Internet since I already use them for my tv but, I have heard that with cable you risk having your computer getting attacked more.

I would never willingly go back to dial up!
