If Cox blocks both ports 135 and 445 that will be semi-effective

... until the next worm goes haywire. It just seems so ironic that
security is reactive, thanks largely to Microsoft, when in many
cases, a proactive approach would make our lives so much easier
(albeit not prevent attacks, of course)...

No matter what Cox does (not that I care), I just don't see a single
reason anymore to deploy Windows ever again.
