The need for static IP comes from them wanting to run their own web-server.

      Not necessarily.  I asked an ISP for a static IP for security
reasons. ("Trusted hosts" and stuff like that there)

Yah, point well taken.

Besides, AFAIK, @Home AUP expressly forbids users from offering web and
ftp services of any sort off their boxen.  

Of course, that's not to say that there are not pseudo-31337 w4r3z-kiddi3z
out there who do so anyways...8-)
