Ran the command, got 402.
402!!! Jaysus.
Shimi where can I read more about this attack and what they're trying 
to do?

And just wait until Microsoft puts out XP - if you're not up on that, 
go to www.grc.com and read about it - full socket support; we're 
doomed. (Thanks to David Lucas for showing me the GRC attack page and 
M$ articles.)
