Comcast to Cooperate With FCC On Probe Over Internet Traffic

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Comcast Corp said on Wednesday that it would cooperate with an investigation by U.S. regulators into how it manages some Internet traffic on its network, but again denied it had interfered with file-sharing services.

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Kevin Martin said on Tuesday that the agency would investigate claims by consumer groups that cable operator Comcast has blocked file-sharing services such as BitTorrent.

"Comcast does not, has not, and will not block any Web sites or online applications, including peer-to-peer services," David Cohen, a Comcast executive vice president, said in a statement on Wednesday.
