Dianna,

I hate to say this, but I had a nearly identical problem once when using 
dialup. My ISP advised me to use Windows like everyone else, and I 
double checked everything and insisted that it was they who were 
dropping my connection after a lengthy downbload. We parted company. I 
switched to another dialup service and never saw the problem again. I 
now use broadband modem and am very happy with it. It is not that much 
more expensive than a dialup service plus a second phone line. DSL would 
be even cheaper.

Wish I could be more helpful, but I appreciate the frustration, and my 
guess would be that he is dealing with incompetent tech support people.
