Best Dial-up ISP That Honors Privacy?

Recently, my dialup ISP called to inform me that I was using an “unauthorized number”. Well, granted, I was (they recently upgraded their numbers), however I was offended losing my privacy like this. If they can tell that, what else can they monitor?

So, anyway, I’m looking for the best dial-up ISP that is about $10/month, has no idle timout (or at least a long one, such as about an hour), unlimited access time (cutoff of about 5 hours is acceptable, however), doesn’t monitor your communications at all (ie won’t interfere at all unless a Federal judge signs an order, and even then will protest it (ideally)).

Sure, it is a bit much, but since DSL and cable aren’t available, and I respect my privacy, I’m hoping you could help me with this. Thank you.

Downloading Yahoo! Toolbar to Disc?

For various reasons, I’d like to download the toolbar as a file, to store to disc. I’ve browsed past messages, and seen a number of useless answers, along with one or two people who have an installer on their website. I’m not interested in that… I want a “virgin” file from Yahoo! without having to rely on a third party. Where, o where, could one find such a thing…? Last version I found (from Yahoo) was v6.3.2.2, but they’ve changed the way Toolbar downloads/installs are handled.

I CANNOT accept answers like “Go to http://toolbar.yahoo.com and it’ll install it for you” – that is NOT what I want… I want a file to save to DISC that I can transport around with me. I deal with folks who have very bad dialup connections (and no access to broadband of any sort) – so downloading on site is not an option!

I want to get a wireless card for my laptop. Where do I start?

I will be doing some traveling this summer, and want to get a wireless card for my laptop so that I don’t have to pay for the service at hotels or try to find a local dialup number. My laptop is wireless enabled. I don’t know enough about it to shop knowledgebly. I don’t even know the correct terminology.
I guess I am not explaining myself very well. I want one of those things that you put in your laptop and it provides the service. It might work through your cell phone, and you get it through a cellular company.

Thanks but I don’t have their number to ask about the best dialup numbers. Do you have one?

A number for AT&T support, either customer service or tech support?
