Thanks everyone for your input! I'm currently on aol and not too happy with them, that's why I'm switching. I work in Florida and from Munich/Germany, and found tons of easy access in Germany, considerably faster than aol and not as pricey (aol int'l surcharges me $6 per hour! on top of my monthly fee). I'll check out ispwest, and "vielen Dank" again, -tobias.
