1. Introduction
Welcome to the land of the internet-free!!
Some people might ask:
"Why would you want to be internet-free?"
The awnsers:
1. No spyware
2. No pop-ups
3. No hackers
4. No viruses, trojans, worms, etc.
5. You dont have to buy firewalls, anti-virus software, etc.
6. You dont have to read your mother-in-law's annoying emails
7. There are lots and lots of other reasons, why dont you just find them out by yourself?

3. How should I?
How to unplug your computer from the internet can be complicated. You can try to randomly pull out cables from the back of your computer or mess around with Windowz/Linux/0S2/Mac/etc. to find a setting to virtually 'unplug' the internet, but that takes up lots of time and energy. This simple How-to tells you exactly how to unplug it. And if youre stuck, just go to the 'troubleshooting' section of this book.
The method of unplugging depends on what kind of internet connection you have.
To find out, contact your internet-vendor (haha) and ask them. After you know, jump to the appropriate section it this book, and once you finish that youre done! Voila! No internet!
4. DSL
So you have DSL, eh? Not bad, but this is the hardest one to unplug. Ok, so now follow these instructions carefully, step-by-step:
1. Locate the box that has flashy light displays, if you cant find it, look for the small thingy behind the tv that splits that weird cable.
2. From the box, trace back the cables to where they comes from. Find and hold the one that goes into the back of the computer.
3. Unplug it by either pulling on it, twisting the top part, or cutting it(last resort).
4. Find the cord that goes from the flashy box (if you have one) to the electricity plug in the wall. Unplug it there by pulling on it.
5. Youre done!
5. Modem
Modem, the slow p.o.s. If you have aol then stop reading this because i hate aol and im not going to help you. As a punishment for having aol, call thechnical assistance!
Ok, so here are the steps:
1. Locate your phone, unplug the phoneline from it.
2. Locate your modem in the back of your computer, there are two phonelines coming from it, unplug both.
3. Follow the one that leads to the wall, keep this one in your hand.
4. Plug the open end of the phoneline youre holding into your phone.
5. Voila! Youre done!
6. Network
The easiest and fastest of them all:
1. Locate the cable coming from your wall going into your computer.
2. Unlpug either end of that cable.
3. Youre done!
7. Troubleshooting
If none of the above worked or if you stopped because something wasnt working as described, do the following steps to unplug your computer:
1. Find an axe
2. Hit your computer (Not the monitor!!) with the axe until the monitor flickers and goes out.
