Wanadoo do offer an uncapped service. Can't remember how much bit it was one of the options i considered.
Honestly though, I'm capped at the lowest setting, and still have yet to hit the ceiling....
What about, in a workplace, they used a standard installed program in Win 2kpro for the graphics for a product in development. When i came in they set me up with a basic user profile, but, when i came to save the files i was working on, the files were not saved, even though the program was working. In order to do the work required i had to sign into a seperate account created without access to the network so i had LOCAL admin permissions.
This was a program written by Microsoft.
so, does this mean the old chestnut deleting the partition, re-partitioning then reinstalling windows doesn't effectively shred the data now?
THat was always my approach before reselling. Nice clean windows for the user too. (I'm not geeky enough to understand Linux etc

Case 1: Iceland Supermarket
Electron card was SWIPED instead of put into the clearly working chip-and-pin machine because (and i quote) Electron takes too long. (note, i was the only person at the til)
Case 2:New Barcleycard
Received a few days ago. Leaflet included sings praises of cip and pin. Ring barcleycard to activate card, peel off sticker and...no chip
What is the use of all this security if noone uses it?
If they actually use the damnned chip-and-pin machine.
Case 1: local iceland supermarket. Electron card swiped as 'chip-and-pin takes too long for Electron dear' (cashier said when i quiried why she didnt use the pin machine)

If computers could get migraines, maybe they wouldn't crash so often :D
~drops dead with a loud groan from the truely lethal pun in above post~
The one that allows that annoying box to pop up 3 million times until the user thinks clicking Yes is the only way to get rid of it.
Says it all really.
Until you have something better to do then flame people then I'm afraid your point is going to be ignored.

I dont go there if i can avoid it now...
For the moment. They are planning to remove those once all cards are chip-and-pin and the magnetic stripe still does not record the pin.
