My boss is really into personal high end electronics.  Goes to the show in 
Las Vegas, etc.  He got struck by a serious lightning strike that took out 
washers, dryers, etc.  However all of his high end electronics were 
plugged into good protection.  In that realm he only lost one DVD player 
that was not plugged into protection.  He also lost some satellite 
equipment that took it through the phone line.  (Why NOT to use non 
cordless phones during a lightning storm.)  I asked him why he didn't have 
the phone lines for the satellites plugged into protection, since many 
surge suppressors have phone protection available.  Basically, he just 
didn't, and, they can sometimes cause too much interference for modems.
