I can, but I don't want to.  Our firewall isn't a firewall like the
world things about it, but mainly a 'Filter' which lets out all the good
packets but doesn't let in any of the 'bad' packets. *grin*

We're a pretty small outfit with nothing to hide, (and a *really* slow
network connection) but I don't have the time nor desire to restore
broken systems and/or format disks if we get broken into.
