Did I break anything legitimate?

There is legitimate use for 135, although normally it is not used in the wild much. From what I can see, the 10% traffic mark is about average and should mostly be infected systems. I've seen some tight-in network scans from one of my networks to the others (within the same /18). Still monitoring loads before I decide to crank in lists between networks to limit cross infection. Tomorrow starts the fun... EU contact.

I plan to open up inbound first and let user's get infected, tracking and purifying my network for about a week, perhaps two. Then I'll reopen the network for full traffic if it looks clean enough. Emergency "Good Neighbor" policy. :)
