My parents are getting iStop in the next week or so, on a line rated to

They do of course reserve the right to block a port if unreasonable
amounts of traffic starts to flow.  So if you run a windows server and
get the latest outlook virus that starts sending 100000 emails per
second, expect something to be blocked real quick. :)
