What was it? *78 or *80 to disable call waiting (so that you wouldn't get disconnected when someone called)? And anyone else remember netzero? | I went as far as paying $5/month for Internet Call Director which would alert me when someone called and gave me the option to disconnect and answer or forward the call

I remember dling a hack to bypass 'cooldown' to punch people nonstop in that chat game lol.

LOL, look at what they're saying. "Do you have a nice body?".
I remember getting ICQ #s from unichat. Conversation start like this:
1) walk up to random girl (the ones that didn't use an ugly avatar)
2) "a/s/l?" - determine worthiness from response
3) "wats ur icq #?"
4) repeat
Haha, Unichat had clans too. Rapid punch, ninja walk, flooding..memories.

Telus cell phone plan was $30 for like 30 minutes.
Parents got pissed when 56K dialup blocked the home phone line and they had to call using cell phone.
