The Blaster worm has infected hundreds of thousands of Windows machines, shut down the Maryland state DMV, put network administrators on overtime, crashed countless consumer's home computers, and on Saturday it will attempt a denial-of-service attack on Microsoft's Windows Update site. But that doesn't make it all bad.

Just imagine this, i payed (a lot!) to My Isp for a static Internet address, to be free to run my odd services, that runs on odd ports or uses DCOM apps between Rome, Stockholm and NY.
.. and do u think i should leave my ISP kick my (small) business off the Internet because they hired a dumb netadmin???
.. well i think i'll take my own risk to kick my own netadmin's bottom to get my system patched than to leave someone else decide my traffic policy!
Better to be connected for sure and probably secured (eheh.. netadmin's bottom-kickin' often works :P) than being secured for sure and probably losing money
