If your providers not on the list .. good chance they might be cush.

If your with AOL ..they are the shittest providor going from what Ive seen and been told

Just when you download on the torrents and they have loads of seeds.. and it goes slow as a snail..its usually down to your Isp throttling your bandwidth..

aol was or still are owned by times warner bros, who make the films worst one for illegal content since they make and distrube alot of the worlds commercial films and music.

they known to grass people up who host illegal content on they pcs over p2p and often cut people off over it or limit they service so its near enough impossible
