Seems not though.  Seems with lack of better information, there was onlyso
much ¨you could have done.

Some of the folks chatting on this may not have much experience with
session ¨security issues and the random mess they can make.  Igamine and
IREX type Bink ¨connection gone wild and they can cause a virtual denial of
service because ¨they hit so fast and arent set to time out.  UGLY.  Can
down your ability to ¨connect with anyone else as it comes in and causes
the system to cycle and by ¨the time that is done, there they are again!
