Can you elaborate on that? (off list, pehaps, as I'm sure there aren't many 
people who are really interested) I'm just curious about it.

Anyway,  it didn't work with my mozilla, but there could be hundreds of 
reasons for that (Narita airport, for example, has a submission form that 
didn't work for me for anything that wasn't IE). Mozilla isn't my primary 
browser, so you're probably right to assume it was a configuration problem on 
my part.
There are many other places (Starbucks on the west coast, many European 
airports) that worked perfectly with konquerrer, so I guess there are 
different versions.

Since you mention Narita: no need to use the dialer there, you can easily 
input the iPass name and password using the web interface. 
I totally agree about the advantage of iPass: but has here got iPass working 
under Linux? (I'd really rather not use their dialer under WINE).
