It figures. Comcast blocked my outgoing SMTP traffic a few days ago and sent a notice to a comcast.net mail address I don't read, so I didn't find out until the outgoing messages started bouncing after five days. The message claimed that their anti-spam system had supposedly detected spam from an infected system here -- not very likely, since I don't run Windows. I called Comcast to question their claim that my system was a spam source, and the tech refused to back up the claim with any evidence. An hour later, he called me back to say they had port-scanned my system and were warning me about a server on port 22 (!). I haven't been harassed by a corporation before, but this sounds like it. --RC
