Woohoo! "All tests performed, no relays accepted." I guess that means I
pass the test.

Ok, now which should I do: simply reset my DSL modem so it'll change IPs,
thus leaving this IP address in dsbl.org's database, or should I try and
get the IP address out of dsbl.org's database? Or should I report it to my
ISP or something? Any ideas?

This sentence would be seven words long if it were six words shorter.
