 Good extras too

The Internet service is fast and it comes with a bunch of great extras. I was going to renew my Symantec anti-virus and found that you get McAfee for free, which saved me probably $30 or so this year.

And I use OE to POP my email and just downloaded this free Cloudmark anti-spam / anti-phishing plug-in for free -- this does not look like a standing offer as with McAfee - just some kind of limited time free deal which helps cut down on the spam I still get in my Comcast email account »www.cloudmark.com/comcast/. I became a POP user though because I just could not tolerate their webmail interface - bad stuff - which needs an overhaul.

My Vonage service has worked fine over it but the quality seems to be declining, and I have heard similar complaints from other users. May switch to SunRocket or maybe try Comcast VoIP since I may save some money on cable TV with their triple play special prices.

I wouldn't touch McAfee with Symantec's barge pole. I use Avil's "Avast"; and have set up friends with Grisoft's "AVG". Both are free, and you can use them with any ISP.
