Level 3 should just pull the plug for ALL traffic originating from Comcast's network. They must want a new peering agreement. That would make it instead of the WorldWideWeb The ComcastWideWeb (maybe The TX-ComcastWW , CA-ComcastWW, etc). It would also smack the head of Congress & FCC with a 2x4 (wake-up)!
Its called the Mark of the Beast and without it you will not even be recognized as alive. No food, water or logeing will be given to anyone who doesn't have it.
My TOS for RoadRunner dosn't say anything about NOT running servers. As a matter of fact they helped me get Apache running on my Win2k box. I also have a static IP and it only costs $4.50 per for more if I want. The only thing they don't want on their network is Wingate for security reasons(but even then if I use a firewall it's ok). The 40k UL cap does suck though but I can see the need for the cap it is cable after all.
Let me tell you about an amusing incident that occurred in the good old days:
I was working at a medium sized company as an IBM DOS/SP system programmer. We used a CICS security front end from CA with a quarterly license geared to the CPUID. We were always running down to the accounts payable department to remind them to cut the check to CA or the systems would stop working. It was a quarterly ritual that started warring on the nerves. Well to make a long story short. The next time the CA tech rep called to remind us that we hadn't sent them a check. We just ignored it. As expected the next Monday morning we got the first call from the AP department that they couldn't get into the system. We went for coffee. After 30 minutes with the pagers going off constantly we walked into the AP department and explained that we had found the problem and all it would take is for them to cut a check to CA for $2500 and the problem would be solved. When they said we can't cut a check without the AP system up. With a straight face we replied that could be a problem. When the VP of the AP department had to take out his own checkbook and write that check we just thought to ourselves there's a problem we won't have again.
Who says that a 3 year licenses won't work. Just multiply the above by 500 PCs and make sure that the AP's VP has a big checkbook.

They have the best "TV Guide" around. ClickTV sucks compared to tv.excite.com.

I think everyone here needs to go back and review what they forgot from CS 101.
nohonor "There is no honor among thieves"If you are driving 55mpg in a blinding snowstorm you need to distracted by your "passenger" yelling at you to SLOW down.
Maybe they should change their url to www.boycottTHEMUDHOUSE.com.
