This is a little off-topic, but you really should
get yourself a new ISP. Suspend first, notify later is
a really crappy policy.
Unfortunately, it is pretty standard in .uk - there is a precident that even leaving *news items* on your news spooler that someone has sent a legal notification in on (for libel in this case) that weren't even posted from your isp is grounds for the complainant to sue the *ISP* for bignums (presumably on the basis that many offenders are either untracable or judgement-proof). There was a reasonably recent case where an online newsletter website was shut down - and in order to get it back the content providers were told they needed a signed statement from their lawyer that no postings libelous to the complainant would ever be posted (note, there *had* been no such postings to date, the complainant sent in a nasty-gram on the basis they *might* write something he didn't like in the future. Add this to the RIP bill and BT's heel-dragging over Flatrate, and you don't have to wonder why England isn't going to be the "ideal home for ecommerce" the government used as an election platfor In reply to RE: RE: Downloading of ? content for personal use
