Question

Hi,

I currently use AOL which sucks, so want to cancel my contract with them ASAP. Can someone recommend a good Broadband ISP, Basically i would like Broadband access and be able to use Microsoft's Internet explorer software to surf on, which i have on my P.C instead of being stuck with AOL's pants software.

Looking for unlimited access at a fixed monthly fee - does BT broadband's access let you use Microsoft's software to surf ?

Hope this makes sense as not very informed with regards to PC matters.

Thanks for your help....

Yes, BT's broadband does let you use Internet Explorer. Most broadband services are to a fixed fee, so that would suit you. Recommend you look at Nildram or Freeserve.
