Verizon was one of the first ISP's to block Gnutella on their networks, and are unresponsive to any appeals to unblock it. I've sent a nastygram to their security "experts", and am actively seeking another ISP - I think there are 1 or 2 other DSL providers in my area. It's a shame, really - their field techs are top-notch and I've had no connectivity issues in 3 years, but the PHBs who set policy are as bad as my bosses at Greyhound - which is a major insult, in my book. In the meantime, I'll just be a Virginia boy with a .co.uk e-mail address :)
