In other words, most of the pollution that's currently around - probably less than the junk they're already blocking - my firewall logs got a hell of a lot shorter when they did that!
They are true inbound syn blocks.

As its the CM's that are doing the blocking their may be a limit to how many they can do. It's also somewhat pointless as nothing on your machine should be listening on those ports anyway (which is also the case for port tcp 27374).
