2001-09-08 -+- Tim -+- tim@tasmail.com -+- While these active programs are great, there is one major problem the author has forgotten to mention.  It's very easy to spoof packets on the Internet, and if I want to stop you getting to certain sites (ie the IRC server you're connected to) all I have to do is send a bunch of spoofed packets that appear to come from the IRC server.  Bingo, portsentry kicks and blocks your access to the server you're connected to.  Your IRC session drops and you get annoyed!  <br>I'm sure there are now some workarounds for this, but any program that will automatically put firewall rules in place is always going to be subject to this problem.  Just something I feel the writer should have mentioned but didn't.  Otherwise a good article!<br><br>Tim
