MSN Chat

[WoW]

Is this true : NO MORE MSN CHAT once you are capped?

Is there away around it and does that also mean no hotmail(email) checking?

i've tried, msn messenger & hotmail dont work once you're capped cos your msn passport info is stored on overseas servers. i've even tried using a webmail account associated with msn passport but that doesnt work either. best thing to try is to use a proxy service once you're capped

does your cap increase when you surf or when you actaully dl data directly?

every bit of info going into and out of ur modem contributes towards the cap. doesn't matter what you do online, everything contributes

Yes, because that's international traffic. Unless you get capped really early in the month....

Both, viewing websites uses some of your cap like for example, pictures, animations, etc. its not a lot though, unless you viewing a website with videos or stuff like tht.

Local bandwidth can't cost them that much can it!!?? Really!!!

Try the open source messenger JAM, they have servers in SA link to the States, so u can use it when capped. But i have noticed a bit of a delay with messages being sent back and forth.

u could use qq as well. u can use it while u're capped and it has webcam and audio capabilities as well. still prefer msn messenger, but qq is ok to use for the remainder of the month while u're capped
