Tonight my ISP is a pain in the ass

I've gotten kicked out of Yahoo! Messenger and had to logon again at least ten times already.  Skype appears to be more recilient, but I've been logged out from it too anyway.  Sometimes I also can't get to a website because of some error you only get when you're not connected to the Internet.

I don't even want to call the ISP cause I know all of their operators will be busy, and most likely will suggest I run a scan with my antivirus.  Sometimes I really miss Internet service from the civilized world.
