Comcast High-Speed Internet — Update to Acceptable Use Policy

Dear Comcast High-Speed Internet Customer,

We appreciate your business and strive to provide you with the best online experience possible. One of the ways we do this is through our Acceptable Use Policy (AUP). The AUP outlines acceptable use of our service as well as steps we take to protect our customers from things that can negatively impact their experience online. This policy has been in place for many years and we update it periodically to keep it current with our customers’ use of our service.

On October 1, 2008, we will post an updated AUP that will go into effect at that time.

In the updated AUP, we clarify that monthly data (or bandwidth) usage of more than 250 Gigabytes (GB) is the specific threshold that defines excessive use of our service. We have an excessive use policy because a fraction of one percent of our customers use such a disproportionate amount of bandwidth every month that they may degrade the online experience of other customers.

250 GB/month is an extremely large amount of bandwidth and it’s very likely that your monthly data usage doesn’t even come close to that amount. In fact, the threshold is approximately 100 times greater than the typical or median residential customer usage, which is 2 to 3 GB/month. To put it in perspective, to reach 250 GB of data usage in one month a customer would have to do any one of the following:

Double-Take® Software Bridges Gap Between Backup, Restore and Failover Technologies with Livewire™

New Offering Slashes Recovery Time by Leveraging Virtualization

Download PDF

SOUTHBOROUGH, MA. – September 15, 2008Double-Take® Software (NASDAQ: DBTK), a leading infrastructure software company, today announced the release of Livewire™, which provides continuous full system image backup to a centralized disk based recovery server that can be local or at a remote site. Because it is a full system image, everything on the protected server including data, applications, operating system and configuration information is continuously replicated to the repository server allowing that entire server to be easily restored to its most recent state or to a previous point in time snapshot. Livewire can restore server images to dissimilar physical hardware or can automatically provision a virtual machine and restore a server image into it with a few simple steps.

Double-Take Software designed Livewire specifically to protect servers assigned to lower tiers of the disaster recovery plan. These servers and the data on them are still important to the business, but they are not the first priority to recover in a time of disaster. Traditionally, the lower recovery priority on these servers has relegated them to tape back-up, which requires a lengthy and manual tape restoration process, including the loss of any changes made since the last backup. Servers protected by Livewire are kept up to date on disk and ready to recover to any physical or virtual machine in just hours – or less, depending on the size of the server to recover.

“Livewire from Double-Take Software offers a solution to a key but underserved segment of the Disaster Recovery marketplace as identified by IDC – protecting and recovering those servers which are “next” in importance to the organization. Once the Tier One servers have been recovered, those “next” in line can be recovered within an hour or two, so that most of the IT infrastructure is back to pre-disaster levels of service,” said James Baker, IDC Research Manager for Storage Software. “Livewire works in physical, virtual, or mixed physical and virtual environments letting the user select the most optimal recovery point, time, and location for the organization.”
