You're welcome. Glad to help.
As I said, I have never seen any situation in which you need your
ISP's software to get on the internet. The standard software always

On the other hand, I know nothing about T.Com or any other German ISP.
I can't imagine how what I said above could be wrong, but perhaps I
just don't know enough about German ISPs.
