Until fasthosts stop using insecure protocols like ftp, telnet and rlogin, until they stop storing passwords in plaintext, until they redesign their login pages so that usernames and passwords do not go over as plaintext, then they will be the same as all the other ISPs. All ISPs seem to make these fundamental blunders, making them all as bad as each other.
