 Rats!!! On the bright side, traffic through my server has been up. I
 hate wasting $40 a month on a Comcast connection that I am rarely
 home to use. At least now I get some service for the money.

 An odd thing happened to me when I returned home from an out of town
 job site. The Internet connection to Comcast was dead. My wife
 mentioned it to me when I got home. I tried a system restore to the
 last good point I knew the Tor server was working. That didn't help.
 I pulled the power cord to the Comcast modem for a minute or so and
 everything was fine again. I don't recall that happening before
 except when Comcast was installing new services. I hope it was just a
 fluke or some change on Comcast's end.

 I'll be in town for a few days so at least I can watch it.
