    **********************************
    Context: dialup to worldnet.att.net, dynamic IP
    Connect time this date: +- 20 hours
    Timestamps: US Pacific daylight savings, GMT -09:00, synch by xntpd

    AT&T seems to have sucessfully instituted ingress filtering for tcp/80 
    packets from sources IP's external to its class A 12.x.x.x, but hasn't 
    done much to protect from the enemy within.
    
    I'm seeing probes from 12.82.x.x, 12.183.x.x, 12.21.x.x, 12.10.x.x, 
    12.153.x.x, 12.99.x.x, etc etc.
    
    I'm on a dialup on 12.82.x.x
    
    Counts:
    
    08/09/01 total, 177 packets, usually in triplets, so say 59 unique IP's
    
    08/10/01 to 08:45am PDST, 35, so say 11-12 unique IP's
