Hi Chris That's what happens when you write messages quickly, you miss out important details. No there is no broadband in my area at all, I am 7 km from the nearest broadband connection. France has a few companies which offer broadband but none will serve my area. There isn't the competition like in the UK, dozens of companies. According to one google search, only 13 percent of the French population use the net.

I just thought with it being a fairly modern country that broadband services would be available. -- Chris Hallsworth E-mail: christopherhallsworth71@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx MSN: CH9675@xxxxxxxxxxx Skype: chrishallsworth7266 Klango: chrishallsworth FTP: ftp://blindsoftware:ilovecracks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Website: www.chrishallsworth.co.nr ----- Original Message ----- From: "Adrien Collins" <adriencollins22160@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "'access uk'" <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, September 06, 2008 7:18 AM Subject: [access-uk] Dial up internet connections > Hi > > I am only on a dial up connection.
