I used to connect to the internet using Demon's proprietary product "Turnpike". It didn't look very clever, but functionally was excellent.
I have recently changed to use MS Outlook for mail and dial-up networking for access. I have two specific frustrations which maybe someone can help with?
Firstly, I now have to wait about a minute for the "Verifying Password" dialogue to disappear. As nothing changed at the demon end, I assume it is just MS's stuff being slowww responding. Does anyone know how to get a faster connection?
Secondly, Turnpike used to cater really well for mutiple users at the same domain. IE If I connected to browse PPrune, all our mail came in automatically. Neither could my wife read _my_ mail re flower arranging nor could I read _hers_, no doubt from a series of lovers and other undesirables. Now, with MS Internet mail, it all dumps into the inbox of the first of us to connect. You can imagine my enthusiasm for flower arrangment is waning as a result of some of the misdirected mail I've recently received. Seriously though, what is the best solution for maintaining privacy and seperation for all?
Thanks in anticipation to some clever so and so.
