This is from the Bellsouth FAQ on DSL:

What is a Static IP?

This is an Internet Protocol address that remains the same every time a 
user logs onto the Internet. Because it is a "fixed" address, it is 
easier for other Internet users to locate and connect to the hosting 
computer. It potentially enables a user to "host" a website, or other 
type of server connection (e.g., an email or FTP server). As a result, 
this type of connection is less secure than a dynamically assigned IP 
address. Static IP is not available for residential accounts from 
BellSouth at this time.
