| Is it my imagination, or is CERT just trying to firewall up the internet 
| into uselessness?

	Firewalls do not make the net useless, they make it possible
to do real work.  A well designed firewall is only minimally intrusive
into your work.  Far less intrusive, than say, someone reading all of
your company's unencrypted mail for a few months.
