CNN is behind the times. We passed 90% junk (spam, viruses, bogus virus warnings, worms, outscatter spam, C/R spam, etc.) a few years ago. Locally, over the last three months, we've been rejecting > 98% of incoming traffic with just two reported problems from internal and external users. And almost all of that rejected traffic TCP-fingerprints as originating from hosts running Windows. ---Rsk
