I still say you should be able to opt out of the port blocking.

it's one thing for NTL to set up a "virtual firewall" for some users to prevent virii but to then force all users into their server side firewall will only alienate some users.

I guess it is a fallback idea from Bill "too tech" Goodland or Aizad "our users don't want 2 Mbit" Hussein.

NTL should actually launch a survey online at their site, or send one out with the BB Bills to find out what the customers DO want.
