Just looking at hooking me up with some ADSL action at home.. and wondering what different isp's you guys are using and how they fare in pricing and download rates..

im looking at IHUG at the moment.. they got 256k Unlimited DL for 79.95.. and dodo has same for 64.95..

Ive been with IHUG dialup for many years now.. and theyve always had awesome DL and not many line busy.. so im thinking i mgiht stick with em..

packet shaping??

umm most uses will be for a downloading and playing on battlenet..

yeah the reason im thinking ill go with ihug.. is cause they always had good DL rates.. adn have good equipment..

i think they had $99.99 for 512/128 which seems pretty reasonable i thinks.. ive heard a couple ppl say iinet is good.. ill have a look at the website

hackers can get in regardless..u can find out ppl's ip's everytime they logon if u want to.. do u think a hacker with that kind of knowledge would waste his time on lil ol me :P...

Just run a good firewall like i already do and ull be fine..

i just wanna set up a ftp etc.. u could host ure own website.... umm stuff like that i guess

yeah fair nuff, only downside is upload speeds are much slower, I think mine is 512 down 128 up. And its not the hackers with knowledge that worry me, its the kids out ot cause trouble! Yeah, good firewall and keeping up with os patches should be ok though.

yeah thats the way i see it too duncan.. most ppl only bother wasting ther time with something they can get somethign from.. i have nothign to offer other than porn and mp3's..

though.. one of the guys here just did a exchange course.. the amount of loopholes in ubelievable.. u can send emails from

[email protected] or whatever to anywone.. then in the email redirect them to a website u created which mirrors the westpac site.. then just ask them to login to internet banking.. hahhah and bingo!! u got the details..

alot of ppl wouldnt notice www.anything.com/westpacupdate/ and as long as westpac logo's loaded up.. they do what u said in the emial :P whcih was to log on and it would automatically update ure software!!!

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
