The idea is that you plug your Windows (2000/XP) machine directly
into the Internet with all firewall software, etc disabled and leave
it connected for the hour or two that it takes to complete the
process. It's required to ensure your security!

Methinks ATO have bought a turkey from a PFK and are insiting that
it's an elegant swan... because that's what they've paid for.
