I agree, just that my ISP has null technical service
people and after more than 2 weeks they still don't
know what the problem is, so i can't do anything. I'll
handle it ASAP, but i'm on holiday next week, so if my
ADSL is not fixed before friday i will not be able of
doing it before 13th August (assuming my internet
connection will be fixed by then)
