If she has a trojan on board which is filesharing videos etc around the
clock, the 250 GB limit could be an issue...

I probably should have asked this weeks ago since Comcast has been a
topic of discussion.
I help a friend with Computer issues. (iMac / checkbook, etc. She's a
good friend.) She accesses the internet using Comcast, her browser is
Safari, and she uses AOL for e-mail access.
Last year, after her internet connection all but failed, Comcast
rewired her connection from the street to her house. She can access
the internet with no difficulty now. BUT her connection fails,
especially with AOL, but also with the internet, after a very brief
time of inactivity. If she's using her internet connection, no
problem; but if she walks away from the computer for a minute or two
(to get a cup of coffee, for example) and then does a keystroke on
either Safari or AOL upon her return, she's told she's disconnected
and must sign on again. Comcast came out last week and exchanged her
modem for a newer one. It seemed to help the problem for a few days,
but by week's end, the disconnect issue had returned.
FIOS is newly available in her area, and we've been discussing a
possible switch to FIOS in hopes the connection issue will be solved.
Any thoughts on this will be appreciated. FWIW: There's no way, none
whatsoever, that her connection is anywhere near the 250gb limit.
