I've got a special personal dislike of Earthlink.

<soapbox>
They tried to get someone that I know fired from their job because this 
individual pointed out that a lot of spam was coming from Earthlink 
because they had poor security. They didn't like that being publicly 
pointed out from an e-mail address that came from Sun when they were 
one of Sun's largest customers at the time. The Earthlink CEO called up 
the then Sun CEO, and *demanded* that this individual be fired.

Well, the individual didn't get fired because it was during the boom 
time, and engineers were valuable, but Earthlink earned my eternal 
enmity because of that.

Until later--
