Mea culpa.

Whatever it did, the result is that before I installed it, talking to the 
outside world worked fine.  After I installed it (and even after uninstalling 
it), I get a blue screen of death every time.

It's some kind of interaction between their code and the drivers for my USB 
ADSL modem.  They document it in their FAQ ... would have been more helpful 
on the front page ...  but I only have myself to blame for installing it 
without reading the FAQ.

I'm not overly worried about it.  I'd probably be brave enough to install the 
Linux version on my other machine, except for the other issue I mentioned, 
which is that their fairness policy means that I'd be almost guaranteed to go 
over my limit if I used it to download anything significant.

Oh well; that's the problem with living in a country with such backwards 
telcos.
