However, several letters to Macintouch also describe major comm problems
after installing the patch. If you don't already, anyone with an 'always
on' Internet connection should have a hardware firewall in place to protect
your machine or nextwork from hacking. I use the sonicwall
(http://www.sonicwall.com) which is around $400 from Buy.com, but there are
others on the market.
