I've had the same problem with Vonage, and even when downloading & uploading is minimal.
I'm going to give the Linksys OGV200 a try. It's described as a "Network Optimizer for Gaming and VoIP" and buy.com has it for $20.
I'm going to try it and see if it helps. Of not, it will be going back to buy.com for a refund.
I've been having the outbound email filtering/censoring for several months now. Can't seem to figure out exactly what they are looking for. Something as simple as my local weather report I sent to a friend was blocked. A news article from my local newspaper was blocked. There solution is to forward the email to their automatic spam filtering system. Apparently, if enough people complain about the same thing, there system will learn to not block it. Personally, I'm peeved over the whole thing. I pay for my internet service which includes email service. I didn't sign-up to have them decide what I should and shouldn't be able to send to my friends and family.
