AI> If someone was bothering you I'd block them at the firewall.

Yeah the bots dont worry me too much, it is the odd telnet connection who tries to log on as me. I assume I logged onto their bbs and they are using the weak password I used there :)  will add them to the firewall

AI> You can also block IP's at the bottom of the inet.bbb but I think you need
