Netzero kicks me offline while gaming

Netzero kicks me offline because their site says that the toolbar must be in view or it kicks me off. The toolbar is covered while i play delta force online. Is there a way to fix this or is my only option to switch ISP's?? If i have to switch,what isp's for 56k do not require a toolbar to be in site while i play games online? area code 812 monthly rate 10-15$

I uses access4less.net. Not sure theyre available in your area, but their service is superb for the price of $6.95. It is a standard 56k dial up, no need for toolbars or other crap software.

Wait, netzero makes u pay AND has a bar? I thought the bar thing was for free ISPs. Seriously though, consider broadband. You want to use it for gaming right? Where I'm at SBC Yahoo gives you DSL for 26.95.

yeah, even if you sign up for netzero platinum ($10/month) you still have to have the toolbar on the screen at all times or it kicks you off. the toolbar is smaller than the free version of netzero, and you don't get intrusive adds other than the toolbar itself.

It's a good & cheap option for people who only use the internet for light web surfing and email. But netzero is definitely not for any type of gaming.
