OK chaps, time to get my firewall sorted out I guess....

Currently it's wide open, with just one rule (block all NetBIOS)

I'm planning to add a default rule which blocks EVERYTHING, then add
specific rules to open up individual ports/services as required... (is this
the best configuration?)

Looking for any "gotchya's" from those of you who've done this, -
are there
any port numbers I should leave open that I might not have considered?
(What
port does MSN Messanger use?)

Paul G.
