if they are that pissed off with people using port 25 - then why dont they open it selectively - like block 25 and 110 and 80 by default, but allow the user to go to a web-form and choose to open em up ? kind of like a customizable firewall ? 99.9995% of the users wouldnt even know what this meant - for the remaining - even if they ran servers, the bandwidth wouldnt cause a blip in the total bandwidth as compared to kazaa or other p2p stuff. what the heck - they could even advertize this as a feature of the ADSL connection - even AOL had a huge ad campaign about how AOL broadband protects you ! _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca
