Hi shantom
ask them direct, Are you shaping,Filtering or interfering in any way with P2P
They will only come clean when you ask for that in writing.
Tell them you want it for your solicitor, & see what they say.LOL
They are just thieves, claiming to give you unlimited connection then limiting you, to the programs approved by them that is illegal but hoo has the money to take them to court.
Peace.

In England its 6pm till 11pm when they block P2P other times of the day should
be OK, Well slow but working
I was with them for years before they started blocking, then they stuffed me in a big way.
Good luck,
Peace.

Hi Dave,
The first thing I'd suggest is look at what Java version you're using. In LW help > about will show you. If you're using Java 1.6.0_01, try reinstalling this older version (a few people have had trouble with the latest Java). Use the JRE offline installer & remove your original Java before installing this other one.
Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5

If you're using Vista, you'll have to run Java 1.6. In that case, reinstall 1.6.0_01. Use the JRE offline installer & remove your original Java before reinstalling.

If you get stuck & nothing's helping, get back to us with your system details
