Hi,

As my previous email, there is no way you can 'hide' the firewall  external interface 
IP Address.  It is generally an acceptable practice with a good comfort level to have 
this in real world.  There are something you can do :

1) Obscure the DNS name for firewall e.g. don't assign a DNS name like 
'Dallas-FW-Ver3.x'
2) Use stealth connection - Drop every connection attempt to your firewall, this 
supposed to make your firewall stealth.
3) Carefully check your security policy to make sure there is no gap / unintended 
holes.
4) Use AntiSpoofing.
etc.

Having said that, the social engineering, that exploit regular computer users' panic, 
that really matters in the advertisement.
