Note: The above info and script work for me to access Compuserve from the Midwest. Your mileage may vary. This script also uses the Connection Type as Normal, I have not (yet) managed to get a successful connection using Highspeed. Also, the above gets you on the Web only, if you want to retrieve your Compuserve e-mail you also have to go into the Messaging function and set up your e-mail. I have done this successfully... Additional info that may be relevant: I am set up for Classic Compuserve and NOT Compuserve 2000.
