The problem being of course that AOL is Win9x/Mac only, and also isn't a
real PPP connection (and will prevent any other DUN connections from
working on Win9x).

OneNet also have unlimited for ~$30/month, again with a 4 hour hard limit.

However you'll end up paying enough for the phone calls with any ISP that
has a disconnect that a ISP that doesn't disconnect is better IMHO. I've
heard good things about WiredCity - no disconnects, but only 750meg dl.
