Why do you say that? I don't doubt that there are other ways, but it has been that way for a while, I've used them as my home ISP for a few years now. I don't prefer that method, but you can remove their program after and you do not lose connectivity or anything. It just validates your account number with Comcast and sets your DNS (probably fiddles with other settings too, not really concerned about it). Valdis, I have exactly 1 Windows machine, dedicated for something else, but it came in handy when I last moved. I would imagine that I could get the link working via a phone call to support.

To the guy saying that comcast requires an executable to authenticate you. Ha. You should prolly wipe your install.

At that point they have control overtheend user's machine and can either clear the DNS cache or force a reboot.That must suck if you're a non-Windows user. ;) _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
