ISP should help you keep stuff off your computer?

Ok, wheres teh logic in this...

Does your ISP provide a firewall, a router, or anti-virus utilities?

Why should your ISP be in charge of you keeping stuff YOU download and install off YOUR computer?

ISPs provide the internet, that is it. If you dont know something, READ A BOOK.

I don't think the ISP "should" have to do anything but provide good internet service. Yet, it would be nice if they did ad the features to their service as a customer service method. It would help the internet as a greater whole to reduce worms, viruses, hackers at the source level.

Just a thought...

Ford doesn't control where/how you drive, but they still offer you a spare tire.

would be nice if the isp sent you a letter explaining what spyware is and siome suggestions on how to remove it. Also i dont thing isp's should have to provide anti viris and firewall software but is they sent out letters explaining it and suggestionbs of programs to get it would reduce alout of problems and free up bandwith from being wasted by trojans
