@home actually allocated a static IP.  ATTbi says they'll be changing the
address, but so far haven't that I've seen...

@home was blocking port 80 for a week or two during the high point of Code
Red, then they re-enabled it.  According to the test I just did, they
aren't blocking port 80.  At least, on my cable-modem IP, it lets enough
through that the firewall on that machine logged the packet it dropped (I
don't a web server on that machine).
