The cap trigger isnt bad (its usally based on 3 days of +1GB or continued overusage over a longer period of time), and Ive occasionally hit up to 2GB a day, but then during the week my usage is near zero due to work,
I think ntl should make broadband medic mandatory, and put a bandwidth meter in it, that way everyone will know thier usage, and not complain when they get a letter through when they've downloaded 100GB of hooky software :p

Why should broadband medic be made compulsory? Have you actually tried to install any software from ntl? I wouldn't try to install anything from an ntl cd.
All braodband medic does is fix problems with your connection.
Not everyone downloads hooky software etc..
If ntl senior management had invested properly in the network back in the early 90s there would be no need for a cap now.
