General use of residential
and business accounts
47 Application of the Service
47.1 You are required to sign-up to an appropriate
account type depending on your required utilisation. Home accounts
are provided for residential consumers, if you wish to use your
account commercially then you must sign-up to a business account
or Teleworker account where appropriate. For guidance, we consider
commercial use to be at a level above that which is running a part
time business or supporting any kind of hobby. Business accounts
must be used if the account is to be used from any official business
premises while Teleworkers are considered to be commercial use of
a residential connection.
47.2 The service includes a number of product features. Not
all product features are activated as standard. Product features
that require customer activation are subject to reset should they
remain unused for 3 months.
48 Disruption to the Service

also may not be used to interfere with computer networking or telecommunications
Services to any user, host or network, including, without limitation,

Service, improper seizing and abuse of operator privileges and attempts
to "crash" a host. The transmission or dissemination of
any information or software that contains a virus or other harmful
feature is also prohibited. You are solely responsible for the security
of any device you choose to connect to the Services, including any

48.2 Using the Service, particularly "Always
On" products, to run open servers, such as SMTP relay, web

which can be connected to over the Internet by hosts not in a trusted
list.

regulations and other rules. For example, it is possible to obtain
access to content that is pornographic or offensive, particularly
for children. We can assume no responsibility for the content contained
on the Internet or otherwise available through the Service(s). You

may want to use a program capable of restricting access to sexually
