Wayne,

For peace of mind and sanity, I recommend TPP Internet 
(http://www.tppinternet.com.au)
They are easy to deal with, polite, cost efficient and you have complete 
control over your clients.

As for this list....
don't get caught up in the mess of it! Use it for entertainment purposes 
and you'll be fine!

Regards
