	There was *one* faultless ISP, but then they were bought out by
iinet ;)

	I doubt iinet "knowingly" spread virii - you have evidence of an
iinet support 
	person or staff members account sending a virus?  I take it you have
notified them?

	If you meant that iinet should be looking inside customer message
	traffic for 
	offenders, thats a VERY dangerous precedent that I would want to
know
	about ...

	And I have yet to see ANY ISP held up as faultless, but it does seem
that iinet, 
	despite the last 6 months is STILL better on a cost for service
basis than many others.

	Please be fair and try and look at the conditions as they are at the
	moment.
