<Shameless Plug> Well, you should probably consider a remote security
analysis scan to determine any vulnerabilities in your system/services and
also to check for any backdoors that are now available. To do this, you
could support a PLUG member and local business and visit Edgeos at
http://www.edgeos.com.  :)   </Shameless Plug>
