I might have to change ISP if this doesn't get sorted out. 750k will be nice but it's only any good if it actually works.

I can confirm that some connections/areas are proxy free: ever since I got broadband here (Lewisham & Greenwich) late last year, I haven't been on a proxy - great joy!

However, I got the speed upgrade a few days ago (600 - 750K), and the evening after getting it, suddenly got that surfing in cold treacle syndrome... went to All Nettools and, yes, I'd been proxified. Changed to a different proxy and things are much improved, but it's not like those carefree days when I had a proxy-free connection...
