Hi all,
 I should also mention that I tested this issue with the newest version
 of Snort. However, I had to send the packet (with invalid sequence and
 ack numbers) repeatedly 3 times (to Snort) before Snort passed one of
 the packets down to the detection engine ( I wrote a rule to check
 this)
 Thanks,
