I have the internets at home now.

C*mc*st, in addition to charging a ridiculous amount of money for this service, managed to screw up its customer registration portal site (which should not exist in the first place), making every attempt to load a website not in their domain redirect to the first screen of the portal. After I filled out the entire form. Twice.

(Also it spammed queenpam's registry and hard drive with useless junk.)

(And I'd like to know how the heck someone with a Mac could get past this ActiveX-enabled hurdle.)

Anyway, when I called their helpdesk about this problem, I was told to clear browser cookies and restart Internet Explorer.

This worked.

I am not able to apprehend how.

But hey. Internets! At home!

Did you know that Comcast invented internet explorer? They also invented Al Gore. And tubes. Or possibly discovered them, I'm not sure.

Please, they only claimed to have provided internet explorer.
