OT [plug] ISP

[Justin]

Actually i have one of each (ie a home and a Business account) - and 
currently the home account does have a static address, though iinet has 
stated that they will be changing this sometime in the near future (i 
suppose once they work out how they will be doing it)...
have not put up a web server on the home one as yet so can't comment on the 
other bit....
