 Sounds like you have an extremely good provider then!  I wish the
abuse "department" at Ebone were as good; Netcom's used to be.

 I'd be very interested in what kind of filtering they come up with;
do they do transparent proxying for outbound http connections?  That
could prevent infected machines from spreading it.

 Ho hum.  Luckily (?) I didn't get my SDSL connection yet, I'm still
waiting for the kit and the copper pairs :o/  With any luck this will
all die down before I do.
