Selfless Concern

Dear Shaw Internet Customer

In order to provide all Shaw Internet customers with an optimal Internet experience we proactively assess our network. Through our analysis we have noticed that the level of activity on your Internet account is more than 30 to 50 times that of our average Internet user.

We would like to help identify the cause(s) of the heavy traffic that may be affecting your computer's performance and most importantly your Internet experience. Often a file sharing program can be the cause of high amounts of traffic. Not only will this affect the flow of traffic on the Internet it also puts a major strain on your computer's resources.

For more information about how large quantities of Internet traffic can adversely affect your online experience please click here: http://support.shaw.ca/assistance/filesharing

If you need assistance please click here to find your local Shaw telephone number: http://support.shaw.ca/contacts.htm

PLEASE NOTE:

We ask that the account holder reply indicating they have read this e-mail and will address this issue.

Oh, come on now, 50 times that of the average high speed user? I admit, quite a bit of data passes through my ol' PC, but I'm pretty sure Shaw's high-balling this figure. Then again, if the average user is simply checking their email and doing their banking, than a single 24GB download containing all 6 Star Wars DVDs just might boost my usage stats!
