Erm if your on the Business config, you should'nt be capped. But be fair.
My friend is with BT Business Broadband with the so called Unlimited tarrif.
I introduced him to Usenet downloads and within 3 weeks he got a phonecall from BT saying that his broadband has been limited from 8meg to 128k since he downloaded over 750gb in those 3 weeks.
So yeah, be fair to the company and you should be fine.
