eEye has found a few holes in their "routing" software, Sygate. The way that
Sybergen handled the issues was very poorly. They wouldn't release a patch
and instead wanted customers to wait for the next major version of Sygate to
be released... the next version which costs about 70 bucks. So basically it
came down to having to pay 70 dollars for a security patch. I definitely
would recommend against using Sybergen products.

For an example of the poor code within a Sygate product:
We found a bug that would cause Sygate to crash if you simply sent 3 bytes
to port 67 of the Sygate machine.
