1) I took a look at Calamus a year or so ago and found I could do the same myself minus the
prog. However what is point? The packets will only go back to the spoofed addy. To get the
stimulus back you need to enter your valid addy. You could fire a sheetload of spoofed addy's
in the hope of obfuscating the real attacking one and that is about it.
To an intelligent user who has the proper precautions in place ip spoofing is but a minor irritant and not a real threat.

2) I only wish my Orwellian fantasy were reality!!! :-) Your quite right though. Heh were it to
come true I would put myself out of a job. That would not be good at all.

3) Also so is it just me or is usenet in general starting to such big time? Some of the groups I
participate in are mostly filled with posers and wannabe's. I'm a wannabe too however I really
wannabe in the cargo bay with 7 of 9!!!
