  One man's outbound is somebody else's inbound.  Many ISPs are concerned
with stopping existing compromises from spreading, in addition to stopping
inbound attacks.

  Also, more selective filters require more processing power on some
routers.  Sometimes, a lot more.

  Frankly, IMO, if you're using NetBIOS or MS-RPC over the public 'net, you
deserve what you get.
