Glad you clarified using instead of running in reference to WinME. But I still doubt you could run Windows within WVMS within WVMS. Sounds like a recipie for the blue screen of death. Now you could run several versions of Linux in VM without crashing and without the costs involved with Microsoft.
I used Qwest whose tech installed the ethernet card and configured the setting to DHCP on the PC. Previously, I had Qwest DSL which I installed myself neglecting to install their customized browser, etc. as customized browsers crash more anyway. The PC has since been reformatted and the HD changed out and it still works fine without any undesirable software. The iMac was even easier, on OS9, he set it to DHCP and it was up and running. When I got an iBook, I did what you did and haven't had any problems connecting. I have firewalls, ad blocking, etc. on my machines and all works fine. I can disconnect the ethernet, go to dial up, and back, all without rebooting in OSX, works perfect. I do get a lot of junk mail from Cox wanting my business but as they use BroadJump, no thanks. Yahoo's broadband service, SBC, AT&T, Sprint and a bunch of others use their service too. See. There is no reason for a tech to install anything in OSX anyway, plug in and it works.
Senator Fritz Hollings has introduced a bill that would legally mandate DRM. It's called the Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act (CBDTPA) More info here It hasn't passed yet.
I had one sort of. It would call the cell first, then the home phone if the cell was turned off, then voice messaging if I didn't answer the phone. It resulted in a really big phone bill as I got charged the cell rate no matter which phone I answered on. I changed cell providers after that. I imagine it would depend on the service. If there was a flat fee for both numbers, it would work but I imagine the fee would be substantial. I can't see it working for business unless one owned one's own business. However, if it had call forwarding, the call could be forwarded to one's business easily enough.

I like Chibi-zilla but if one doesn't know Japanese, the name might be lost on people. Point is, is Phoenix (the browser) cute?
