Nothing seems to be blocked on my comcast connection (except the
firewall stuff I set up).
Since you brought it up, I sure have been getting a lot of viruses in
my eMail this week. Seems to average about 3/day. All have a
different "cover message", appear to be from different senders -- none
of them known, but are about the same size, contain a windows
executable, an ms jscript part and some other 0 byte part. Whenever
this happens, I get a warm feeling knowing we have no windows internet
connections.
