What was I doing? Reading Google Reader. Meanwhile, my wife keeps getting alerts that her service is going to be reduced to 56k speeds, due to "questionable traffic". She was reading mommy blogs...

I guess mommy blogs are evil. (ducks) The "protecting me from myself" description is apt; some solutions can get to be TOO protective. For example, I appreciate the security policy of requiring a password change every 90 days, but this is more essential for some services than for others. If a non-essential service requires me to change a password I hardly remember anyway, I'm more likely to drop that non-essential service.

SolutionIP doesn't do very well at detecting questionable traffic when all they are stopping in some cases are mainstream! :) I just posted it to Twitter, but will aggregate this and see if SolutionIP has anything watching their brand. From the way the rest is handled they probably missed the detail. I'm hoping I'm wrong.

Yeah - I'd be sure your wireless router has a good password on it. Last time I saw stuff like that putting a password on my router stopped the problem.

You or someone on your network may be infected with a botnet. Jesse is right that the first step is to rule out people who may be freeloading of your wireless network by password protecting it.
