Hmmm, are you saying that the solution to many so-called Internet security vulnerabilities is for people to use an SI Firewall, aka Simple, Inexpensive Firewall, aka Stateful Inspection Firewall?
Its not a real solution, its just goes long way to reduce number of infections and how quickly some worms can spread (although NAT would have no efffect on spread of viruses by email so human factor is primary problem).
Note that Michael said "many", not "any and all". We do not tell people that washing your hands after using the bathroom and before handling food is "not a real solution" because it only protects against the spread of certain kinds of illnesses. ---rob
