But I found they have alternate "Opt out" DNS servers if you do not want to be redirected to their scummy yahoo marketing page when you type in a broken link.. or bad URL. try: 16.105.28.13, and .29.13. Also, pisses me off severely that the bastards disable volume control and mute button on cable box! At the moment I don't have any option but to use it (New equipment on order) and the box also default to their on demand service instead of the last channel I used... very annoying that marketing asswipes are in charge of engineering everything these days, not the engineers who would like to make it user friendly!
