   You have lost me on this one :(   
   Do not understand the usage of fido - telnet etc but I do not have telnet   
   installed any more only use ssh - Security issues with telnet as it has no   
   security.

   Now this I can relate to as I get bad packets from my up link almost weekly.   
      
   I just delete them.
