Jimmy,

I enjoy your posts and understand your need to comment on many
subjects(even those that you openly admit you know little about) but
on this one old chum, you like Tony, have misinterpreted what Sergey
asked.

Firstly, he has not accused TS of accessing his work. He asked what
was going back to TS to make up the two way traffic. If an open port is
required for 8.1 then its a perfectly legit question from anyone,
irrespective of nationality to be concerned about their code. Obviously
Tony has asked himself the same question and kindly gave the link to
ethereal so that others may satisfy themselves. However, that doesn't
excuse misinterpreting this question as a slur on American ethics - hell
if a succession of corporate and financial scandals hadn't achieved that
your Commander in Chief threw away any resemblance to an ethical US with
extraordinary rendition and imprisonment without trial - {at least in
Russia you get a trial, even though, as in Khodorovsky's case,it may be
rigged}.

The point is, nobody has answered Sergey's question. If your not a
network pro how do you find the answer with ethereal? Attend the training
sessions offered in the 4 US cities? I think not.

Regards

Michael Stewart
