"On Feb. 7, Fred Langa hopes to write about Online Security, and "how
port watchdogs may do more harm than good." As Fred says, "many apps
that watch your Internet ports for hacker-like activity may actually
be inviting more attacks than if you just left the ports closed and
effectively invisible to the outside world. A lot of people are running
apps like BlackIce, and they run the risk of creating a greater mess
than if they just hid behind a cheap firewall or NAT.""
