You're welcome.  I understand.  I remember a co-worker of mine getting
high speed at home and was going to pay the cable company for the
install.  I told him don't bother, I'd do it figuring it would be a
five minute favour.  Well his computer was running at a snail's pace
(over 5 minutes just to boot) because of P2P software that littered it
with adware/spyware.  I ended up doing a complete re-install of the PC
after backing up whatever data was important and then getting their
Internet working.  A 5 minute favour turned into a 3-4 hour favour.
Someone replied to me offlist about a company in Nepean I believe that
did a 20gb recovery job (copying data to a DVD) for $60.  That's more
than reasonable for a home data recovery scenario.  Perhaps they've
already passed on that info to you off list.
