I've done that before too... If I don't mention legal action, they will never respond. I guess they just think it's not their system so they could care less.

Don't think that about Erols until you try ... I know the person who answers the abuse mail. I think he'd be offended by that statement.

I have had very good response from erols a couple weeks ago when reporting a hacked account which was used to harrass people on IRC (he de-activated three accounts). I simply sent accurate /whois and date/time info to abu@erols.com and got a response within minutes. Cool guy :)

When I mentioned legal action, I was referring to the phone, not email. When you call their support number, they have a lot of clueless kids who read scripts. They are well-trained not to pass calls on to important people. IMHO, this is their biggest problem, but don't know if I could really do better given the number of windoze lusers they serve.

TS: Is your modem plugged into the phone line? LU: Modem? What modem? TS: You need a modem and a phone line to use our service. LU: Whats that?

or

LU: I call the access numbers and hear funny noises TS: You need to call the access numbers with your computer's modem. LU: Mean I need a computer to access your service!?
