Use Konqueror if it's not supported:)
So all those using Linux can use Konqueror. Or, when KDE 4.0 is out, Dolphin:)
Phorm appear to be in discussion with other ISPs both here and abroad, according to this :

We need a page somewhere that lists all those ISPs that don't give a damn about their customers. Maybe a section on El Reg?
VM now have a webwise page :
http://www.virginmedia.com/customers/webwise.php
Here is an extract :
Webwise will help provide you with a safer and more relevant online experience by helping you avoid scam emails or websites, as well as making your online experience more relevant through advertising that matches your areas of interest.
According to that, it will also protect us from scam emails. Well how are they going to do that unless they are sniffing our emails?! I for one will be leaving vm, as will the missus seeing as we share the connection. I will have to get her another email
address. Maybe gmx.com - no spam there.
Why do the ISPs assume we want ads thrown at us anyway? oh yeah, to make them more money. Maybe this is why vm have dropped their prices and upped the speeds at the same time. They knew they were going to rip their customers off by flogging their surfing habits and making money out of them.
There is one other thing to consider - sometimes we forget a password and it is emailed to us and we happen to use webmail to view it. Oh look! They can see my password that I got emailed to me. And they say they will ignore passwords. Or we get a link to a page to change a password. Get out of that one then Kent "the lying b***tard" Phorm.
Just checked that investors site, here is the latest posting :

Briefly, it says it is looking good in the USA (for Phorm), looks like AT&T will be signing in a couple of weeks and revenue will soon be coming in from the UK ISPs.
So it looks like the 3 traitor ISPs are going to be starting their sniffing very soon. Well that is what it is, sniffing our packets.
We don't want ads so phuck off phorm. And up yours vm!
Tux because I use Linux Konqueror is not supported:) Yes, I also use windoze, but Linux is my OS of choice.
