| ISP |
Short for Internet Service Provider, a company that provides access to the Internet. For a monthly fee, the service provider gives you a software package, username, password and access phone number; some cable television companies now offer cable internet service, which provides direct access to the internet without a phone line. Equipped with a modem, you can then log on to the Internet and browse the World Wide Web and USENET, and send and receive email.
