Some sample data of one characteristic behavior of the odd SYN packets
with Window Size 55808.  Notice the varying TTL values and the single
variance of the Packet ID while the Sequence number remains constant
along with the source/destination pairs.  Comments welcome, remembering
that this is just one of many characteristic behaviors observed
