a while back i had a problem with pipex / mac code / changing over to Be. they said the mac code was bein used and some other crap, but eventually i cancelled my net with pipex and they said that my net has finished.

BUT, my net has since STILL been working, yet i dont know why! so how can i know who my isp is? that danasoft graphic that some ppl have used to show pipex but if i check it now it doesnt show any isp just a blank space, any other methods?

yes true and thats what my brother keeps saying, but i dont wanna be made an example of for illegal internet usage!

btw i found this

Go to start menu > run > type in cmd > enter > type in tracert whirlpool.net.au > enter > the second line (sometimes first/third... one of those lines) will contain an ISP name. For example mine is nexthop.qld.iinet.net.au.

guess what it says..tiscali ... great

You did your part and cancelled the account not your fault they left it on. Enjoy it while it lasts most likely will be turned of after a short while telewest did the same to me cannceled phone and internet but 3 months later still on then switched off with no action taken by them as it's their fault.:)

yeah man, there fault! not yours.

Just like with my Orange broadband package (was Wanadoo when i first signed up) when i signed up, it were 1 month fully unlimited, then a 2GB usage limit after that, 4 years later its still unlimited :laugh: :D. And if they finally catch up and say "your downloading around 10-20GB or more a month and have been for the past 4 years, i will laugh at them and say "thats your fault, what do you want me to do about it?"
