Real simple.  Call your credit card company and tell them that you
notified Earthlink on such-and-such date that you were cancelling
their ISP service.  Then inform the credit card company that you will
contest ANY further charges from Earthlink past that date.

Better yet, do all of this via email, with CC's to each company.
Sooner or later, they might notice that you're not paying them...
