Thanks Karl. I'll ask Comcast but don't have much hope I will get any 
satisfaction.  I've accessed my routers web interface but didn't see any 
obvious way to block ports.  Once I figure out how to block ports I may 
just block it and see if anything bad happens.  I have zero faith in 
Comcast's tech support.
