As have everybody... but... I also got buckets and buckets of Port 135 
scans from iiNet addresses on that day, and they also blocked ICMP. 
Wouldn't mind betting an MS-Windows virus or two got loose either in 
that paddock of Windows 2000(?) workstations they use<*> or among some 
large customers.

used the mouse for cut/paste and a lass up the back had PINE open in a 
shell. The comments from the back room on iiNet's Windows policy 
weren't friendly.
