Windows Personal Firewall Whitepaper

Subject: Windows Personal Firewall Whitepaper
Date: 26 Aug 2005 15:37:35 -0000
I have recently completed a paper entitled "Defeating Windows Personal 
Firewalls: Filtering Methodologies, Attacks, and Defenses."   
It explores various filtering techniques that can be performed in Windows, 
nefarious uses for and attacks against these techniques, and how such attacks 
can be prevented.  At the end, it lists how some of the more popular personal 
firewalls perform against the discussed attacks.  The paper is available for 
download at 
http://www.vigilantminds.com/files/defeating_windows_personal_firewalls.pdf.  
Any feedback is appreciated.
