Juno is getting very annoying also. Pop up windows every 30 seconds or so. The ad banner is acceptable, I can deal with that. But those damn pop-ups have got to go.

I was going to make a thread about this. I just got switched to netzero, and it is the worst isp I have ever seen in my life. It tries to disconnect you every 30 minutes or so, and gives you 30 seconds to 'click here' to stay connected. At about the same rate, a window pops up telling you that if you click the banners, it will give you more information about the company, then tells you where the banners are located. FYI, the banner takes up about 1/5 of my 15" moniter 800x600. That can't be disabled either. And worse yet, wheneveryour gone and it disconnects after 30 minutes, you try to reconnect, and it won't let me, saying it's already open! I have to reboot, whenever I'm away for a half-hour. Anyone know of better free isp's, out there? I'm open to anything, this service sucks. Freei was so much better.

Use juno, then as soon as the DUN lights appear in the Systray, control-alt-delete and End Task to the "username - Juno" program repeatedly until it gives you a "This program has not been responding" dialog....click End Task and voila. :D

You need to be fast, and it has to happen before Juno gets a chance to display the Connection stats or else it won't work.
