Sify ppl are morons /I see nothing like Microsoft TCP/IP v6where they think it should be or say so and if I disable the normal TCP \IP how can I use Net then so I switched back to windows 2000 upgraded IE to 6 and thats that(BTW some of their emplyees dont even know the difference between Windows and Linux - they kept directing me to install an exe file on linux (their bband client) and were unable to make my connexion run on Linux forcig me to revert back to Windows. ) :?
