We've been getting a lot of stuff in the mail recently about some new ISPs.  One that I'm curios about because it sounds interesting is the Netscape ISP.  

Question:  Is anyone here using the Netscape ISP?

Netscape is owned by AOL, the most anti gun ISP in existence. So Netscape equals AOL.

And AOL stands for A%^ On Line.There are goop IP/ISP's out there many merge and split so go with one with a track record.

I dumped AOL after I found out they were anti gun and told them why. they did not take me off their service right away and then tried to charge me for a other month something I heard they were good for. I told them to stick it as I told them when I quit them that if they tried that I would not pay. I have not heard anything since I argued with them as they knew they were trying to rip me off for a other month. I now have Juno/NetZero and not sure if Juno is anti gun or not as is Net Zero as they are both basically the same company with two different providers. But they are cheap at 10 bucks a month compared to AOL's 24 plus AOL was charging me another 5 bucks to go through my bank so it was costing me almost 30 bucks.  :x  AOL are Crooks !

The NRA actually has an agreement with some ISP (cannot remember the name).  Some of what you pay goes to the NRA.   I am sure there's probably more info on at www.nra.org.  If not, I know it saw it their magazines.  I get "First Freedom" every month.

Hi-speed cable internet access baby.  It's the only way to surf. 8)  Unfortunately it is around $45 a month. :eek:   Fortunately I can write it off as a business expense.  :grin:  

BamBams, the ISP you are talking about is www.OutdoorsUnlimited.Net
They charge $19.95 a month for unlimited access and $1 of that goes to the NRA.  They are the official ISP of the NRA. If I had to use a dial-up ISP this would be the one I would use.  :agree:

I figure what I pay for Juno saves me enough to pay for my NRA dues and a occasional gun magazine!  :grin:
