Re: The isps need to block by default.

I don't think the isp should be liable for virus attacks, but they could sheild n00bs. And if you use more than aim and e-mail, you could ask them to not block any ports.

If ISP's start blocking known worm/virus ports, where does it end? They'll be constantly chasing new virus.
That's because there only blocking known viri under ur idea.
