Other providers probably do this too, but DynDNS.org has a "web hop"
service that allows you to use HTTP redirection to bypass Charter's port
80 rule by pointing browsers to an alternate high port. It's not perfect,
and will take some tweaking, but it *does* work.

Todd's "Customer Disservice Hall of Shame" currently contains:
- Charter Communications: Mislead to their customers about services,
and block Internet connectivity.
- AT&T: Honoring the "checks" they send out to entice you to switch
long-distance providers is apparently optional.
- eFax: Receive (not send) 20 pages of *unsolicited* faxes, and lose
your account.
