ARGH!!!!!!!!!  Another message blank except for the quote.  I hate Outlook
more!!!!

Anyway, as I mentioned in a previous message, I just bought a SonicWALL
SOHO2.  Last night I hooked it up and configured it.  It's a nice firewall,
but at $500+ (including tax and shipping) it's a little pricey for most home
users.

What features are you looking for that you don't already have?

BTW, at grc.com all of the ports showed "closed" under the default
configuration.  After I turned on the stealth option, all of the ports
showed "stealth", even 113 (IDENT), which showed "closed" with just Blackice
Defender.
