Someone filed a lawsuit claiming false advertising on part of Comcast. They claimed to have "high speed internet"; however, when people downloaded with Bittorent clients, they received reduced (and sometimes even blocked) speeds. This was because Comcast intentionally throttled Bittorent users, which is apparently illegal according to this lawsuit.
If you have ever used a Bittorent client and use Comcast, you are eligible for $16 of this settlement, but only if you submit a claim at this website:

BTW: You will need to know your Comcast account number!
