Okay, so I'm curious.  Are you saying that you do not automatically block 
attackers until you can confirm a 3-way TCP handshake has been completed, 
and therefore you aren't blocking sources that were spoofed?  If so, 
how are you protecting yourself against SYN attacks?  If not, then you've 
made it quite easy for attackers to deny any source they want.
