   I have a freeware proggy called Chrome that works just fine, & if I need an    
   alternative browser to test/rule out something, I have Firefox.   
      
   I sdtill recall  the time my dialup was repeatedly being kicked off line by a    
   loud electronic noise.   
      
   I was talking to 'tech support' & they were going to help me install an older    
   Mozi9lla product, to set it up for email checks to keep "data flow" through   
   my  modem.   
      
   I pointed out that I was using a binary sucker & there was constant flow of    
   data 24/7.  He says I need to check email to ensure data. I explained that   
   data equals bytes in transit.  He then says, & I quote, "I'm not going to   
   argue the  definition of data with you, sir."   
      
   I finished with, "No,. you're not, because I just TOLD you what it is." then    
   hung up.  I immediately sent an email(via DOS app) to the ISP demanding they    
   sevewr all internet services immediately, with billing to end as at the    
   previous midnight, & explained the issue I had with the moron they hired in    
   tech.   
      
   It was so.  As far as I was concerned I let them off easy with only a half    
   day's per diem for a financial penalty.  I debated claiming the entire month,    
   but I didn't want to start a new discussion with those idiots. I just wanted   
   it cleared out & my line/number open to go to another dialup ISP.
