It is not the static IP address that is the problem.  The problem at hand is
to "Legitimately" run a web server off of the ONLY broadband available in my
area -- Adelphia Cable.

No other DSL providers exist in my area...

Problem solved with the server, do what I do. Use a dynamic hosting company
:) I use TZO.com. Works pretty good :)
