Surscribed!

Would someone please tell me, now that I have a subscription to Dish, how do I use my soliars? Any help would greatly be appreciated. I have to have the phone line hooked up to the surcribed box all the time, so, as I saked before, how can I use my FTA box?

And you don't have to have it hooked up to your landline if you're willing to pay five bucks a month extra. I'd be more worried about having your FTA reciever hooked up to the internet. JMO.

Nope. You're exposed, at least to some degree.

Some will argue that it can be effectively hidden and others will say that is not true. I won't take the chance, myself.

NOPE that only works in your mind!
Proxies or Hide IP's programs HARDLY ever hide it they just make it transparent.
If they want to find you, IKS / ICS is like tying a string right to your house.........
