I tell you what, I pay for my DSL Service. I don't use Microsoft products, and there was no reason to shut down port 80 on my web server. I use NAT and my web server is on a LAN behind my DSL gateway. I spent about 4 hours trying to figure out what was going on.
When I figured it out, I called Verizon tech support and they told me they had put a network wide block on port 80. I pointed out to them that obviously their web servers weren't hampered by that block.
Verizon's respond, "I'm sorry, there's nothing we can do."
Unacceptable, and yes, I would like a partial refund for the 4 days my web site was down.
