Hi, Rich. ] Do you have any ideas as to why that is? The anti-spoofing filtering, while not ubiquitous, has had an effect. The increase in the size of botnets is another reason. The fact that the number of vulnerable hosts has reached commodity level is perhaps the primary reason. The loss of 10K bots often introduces only the most minor of delays. :( Regarding sophistication: I never make the mistake of believing the enemy is dumb. I also do not believe the enemy will go further than what is necessary to accomplish the mission. Just enough is good enough. Thanks, Rob. -- Rob Thomas http://www.cymru.com ASSERT(coffee != empty);
