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.

I've never even been given a copy, never mind use it.
And no, I don't want it.

Re: correct connect(is it really needed?)
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
