Ok Stupid comcast called my mom to give a "curtousy" call. They claimed that I downloaded 750mb of bandwidth... How the fuck do they come up with these numbers? I usually download more than that in a single download. I upload more than that in upstream too so where the hell are they coming up with this number. They are threatening turning off my connection for a year. There really isn't any other decent isp out here. Any ideas what I can do to get around this? I don't wanna stop downloading anime or seeding what I get. Any ideas?

Must be 250 gigs because I have never had a problem before. 250 megs just didn't make since as watching a few videos on youtube could easily take you over. I was thinking they might have meant gigs but wasn't sure. I should be fine. I'll just have to keep an eye on what I downloading for awhile until I am taken off the watch list. Does the bandwidth limit include the upstream or just the down stream?

includes download and upload. Google bandwith tracking programs so you can keep track of your bandwith usage from month to month it will save your ass
