Hi,

My conception is, human usually do not eshtablish SYN connection as more as Nimda or other worms, if I can determine a threshold of simultenious SYN connection that nimda usually creates, probably I will be able to drop packets from specific source IP which meet the threshold. There is chance of false positive - I agree.

If you can _really_ figure out a metric for mutually exclusive TCP/SYN patterns generated by existing worms and write it down in a mathematical formula which has lower false positive rate than any TCP/QoS "defense" mechanism using stochastic (timed) fairness approach I think you will not need to worry about money anymore in future. In fact a lot of very influencing people in the Internet business might feel the sudden urge to talk to you! ;)

Best regards and please don't let me be in your way,
Roberto Nibali, ratz
