server-side connectivity, provided that Subscriber's needs are
mutually understood and agreed upon by both Provider and
Subscriber and the appropriate fees are paid. Subscriber shall use
Provider's service for lawful purposes only. Subscriber shall not
post or submit through Provider any material which violates or
infringes upon the rights of others, which is unlawful,
threatening, abusive, defamatory, invasive of public or private
rights, vulgar, obscene or otherwise objectionable, which
encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, give
rise to a civil liability, or violate the law, or constitute
“slamming” or “spamming.”. Attempts to gain unauthorized access to
other computer systems are prohibited. Users must comply with the
rules and regulations of any network they access through Provider.
Transmission of any material in violation of any U.S. or state
regulation is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to:

may arise from the Subscribers use or misuse of the service which
damages either the Subscriber, Provider or a third party.
Subscriber agrees unconditionally to not cause harm to the
Equipment or third party equipment, software, or processes used in
connection with furnishing the Service. Subscriber may not
restrict, inhibit or otherwise interfere with the ability of any
other person to use or enjoy the Internet, including, without
limitation, hosting or transmitting any information or software
which contains a virus, lock, key, bomb, worm, Trojan horse or
other harmful or debilitating feature; or generating levels of
traffic sufficient to impede others’ ability to send or retrieve
information. Any breach of this provision may result in civil
and/or criminal penalties pursuant to applicable local, state and
federal law and may result in the immediate termination of
Provider service without notice. Subscriber shall not
intentionally allow unauthorized connections to Provider,
