Don,

Was it you who had wrote the URL filed filter to eliminate DROPs and 
such?? A conversation tat went around a few weeks ago and got lost in 
my massive inbox :)

We have been experiencing tons of the IDA exploit attempts... Started 
rifling off some nasty notes to admins of where these (mostly cable 
modem) idiots have bandwidth...

Black Ice is cool for monitoring.. love it... Just wish it could be a 
bit more automated on certain attack to draft emails and such... and 
the evidence logs are really organized...

Never thought *I* would need or want to utilize a firewall type 
solution... Needless to say our servers are running much faster as a 
result...  Must of had a lot of really crappy traffic stressing the 
servers... Spent about 4 hours last night patching the MS based 
servers..

In all I consider it worth it..  The URL hack though still concerns 
me :)
