I talked to Comcast and they said that there is a CD that has to be
installed as it has the drivers, etc. necessary to connect to the Cable.
I understood from what people on the list said that you should not
install any software. Apparently this particular software is necessary.
Can someone explain further what you mean by not installing any
software?
Thanks,
Eileen La Fond

John, this is a good point. I mistakenly installed a security package
made
by my service provider. While I didn't go through the rigmarole you
went
through, what I ended up doing was rolling my system back to a point
before
I did the install. Of course I lost some email messages doing this, but
...
When signing on with a given service provider, folks, you need to be
cautious, because anything else they offer may not be Jaws-friendly.
