I use Pipex, it's pretty good, and more or less reliable, however, it will sometimes go through phases of not working and I haven't yet figured out if the problem is with their server or my modem.

Altered for clarity, though, admittedly, Virgin Online probably represents about 75% of the Internet ;)

Yes, I edited and rehosted the image just to remove my company name which showed as the ISP.  The numbers are un-edited.
