Anyone notice that sympatico starts blocking outgoing tcp port 135 recently?

It probably has something to do with that recent M$ virus [Blaster?]. I believe that it was using ports 135 and 137 to spread.

...mblast uses tftp to spread... I wish that all isp's would block 135:137 though... so many hits on those ports. -- Keith Mastin BeechTree Information Technology Services Inc.
