>From CNN:

Comcast is the subject of an FCC investigation regarding charges it has 
hampered traffic between users without notice. This practice was raised 
by an Associated Press story in October.

"I'm concerned about Comcast limiting the ability of people to go 
anywhere they want to on the free Internet," the commission chairman, 
Kevin Martin, told the AP on Friday. "And that's what the hearing is about."
