I think the bug is terrible, but cuolb be minimized.

I don't understand why the firewall is not only a packet filtering machine, and performs other actions like http filtering, smtp, being an application level gateway firewall. I use to install a machine dedicated exclusively to packet filtering, and other machines to do application level protection.

Simpler is better!
