Yes, but is this Comcast "protecting" customer assets or Comcast protecting their own network and infrastructure from such traffic? I have yet to read the article but shake my head every time I hear/think about vulnerability of M$ based systems. What a racket. Create a product that breaks to foster the need of new technologies all designed to create ever more ways of gaining access to "your" money. I makes it fun to spread the word of Linux to new users who feel the same!<BR>

THANK YOU LINUS!!!<BR>

Well, thank you for protecting me from something that doesn't even run on any of my computers. (botnets notwithstanding)
