Dear Valued Customer,

Just to let you know, when you call your ISP to tell them you're having connection problems, don't use "My LimeWire downloads are stuck at 99%" as your example.

Thanks!

or say "we were downloading episodes of chapelle's show"

Next time, buddy, I'll pass you on.

Hehe, yeah. When I told him that it was illegal, he told me that it wasn't, because he bought their premier version.

Just because it's on Gnutella doesn't necessarily mean it's illegal.

Heh, in theory, of course. This guy was pretty convinced it was unlimited downloads of all his favorite music forever for his one time purchase.

To be sure, there is Mercora, which is supposed to be legal.

Haha, that's a good one.

I had a woman call up complaining of slow speeds and getting knocked offline.

She had a router and I was going to start troubleshooting with the modem and router until she said this:

"Well if I do that my son will be knocked offline."

No problem. Just tell your son you need to troubleshoot.

"He's listening to music on Limewire."

Listening? Just listening?

I doubt that! She's probably getting slow speeds because her son is downloading from Limewire.

"oh no! He would NEVER DO THAT!"

No? Doubt that.

I convinced her to cut out the Limewire on his computer and then we could troubleshoot the connection.

I doubt we'll hear back from her about slow speeds.
