Have I misunderstood your first reply to my report or should that
terrible e-mail-address be immediately changed, to avoid confusion among
innocent users about the valued differences between OOo, OpenOffice.org,
and plain openoffice?

Well I do try my best, I think you do the same. But from your replies I
got the impression that it's my English that is not understood.

Well since I didn't touch the configuration, I see two possibilities
that might have caused the problems:
- my box has been compromised (either my fault or a security hole being
exploited)
- there is an additional bug in either portmap or firestarter
I understood your 'quod erat demonstrandum', that you have proof that
the problem is on my side. Please try to phrase your English and Latin
in a way that people don't get insulted.
Thanks,
Johannes
