Yep, I got it the other day.

Only if you're not on the NTL cable service, which I am.

Really? Mine was scratched too, it looks like they've got a whole dodgy
batch then! I did get it to work eventually though. However, even on my
Win95 PC the installer was absolute shite and didn't even work in the end
(it refused to even dial!) and tech support were completely useless so I
ended up (even with a Win machine to hand!!!) doing it manually and I
signed up with Netscape on Linux!
So, here's the details, I dragged them out of one of the scripts which the
installer installed on my Windoze machine.
To register:
Dialup 0800 5190150
User: p1autoreg
Pass: 112244b0712244
Signup URL: http://autoreg.autoregister.net/cgi/candy
HOWEVER, when I tried that the other day THAT didn't work either (so yes,
neither the installer OR registration server worked!). So what I did was
to just use another dialup connection (I used my old NTL 0845 PCInternet
dialup; I don't know if non-NTL dialups will work) and just went to the
signup URL and entered all the details there. I can't confirm whether the
signup stuff will work with Voyager since as I said I did it with Netscape
4.51 on Linux.
Once you've got signed up, the dialup number is 0800 5190100 and user/pass
are your chosen username and password obviously.
The DNS servers are 194.168.4.100 and 194.168.8.100 but I would have
thought you can probably leave those out and they should get assigned
automatically.
