While all three of these appear to have occurred *after* the Kaminsky
vulnerability was released, there doesn't seem to be any indication as
to whether these systems were patched.

Nor any conclusive evidence that any of these were as a result of the
Kaminsky style attack.   In fact, I recall the South American one for

Someone is sure to launch one now just to shut me up.  Please don't
forget to pass '-s0' to tcpdump before you send me that pcap.  :-)
