Bigger Issue ...

I agree with you about the new Comcast front end. I too find it annoying. But I have a bigger concern. Note the "Sign In" link just below the e-mail link you referenced. When navigating to the "Sign In" page from that link, the page is not going over an encrypted (https) connection. However, if you click on the e-mail or sign-in links at the top right, the "Sign In" page is transmitted over an encrypted link. So depending on how you're signing into Comcast, you may or may not be transmitting password data in clear text. This seems a rather big security hole, if you ask me.
