Re: correct connect(is it really needed?)

Get rid of it, it should be called "incorrectly connecting" cos all it did to my PC was ensure that everything kept crashing.

I should have known better all those months ago when I got BB and thought ntl provided software would be reliable and enhance the service. Any one know what it was supposed to do?

Re: correct connect(is it really needed?)

I do hope that ntl are not paying somebody for licences to distribute incorrectly connecting since the universal dislike of it and derision about it's necessity.

Yup, it's useless - bin it. On the upside, there is a replacement coming out which promises to be quite decent. It's called Broadband Medic
