If Orange allow you onto a different access point you will sometimes get
better download speeds. I'm writing this on orangeinternet, but
internetvpn is sometimes better. Not sure if you're allowed to just try
this or whether you have to request it. My account is a business one not

Anti-virus? M$ don't make an anti-virus product. Agree about the general
