Just a miscellaneous WOW tip, I have their service too and had alot of
troubles with performance because of incredibly slow DNS queries.  My case
was pretty extreme with some requests timing out altogether, but you might
want to check into that and if it's a problem use a service like opendns
instead of their supplied servers.  It made a ton of difference for me.
