Hmm. I saw no mention of attempts to source-route traffic.

I have been told that NT doesn't have the ability to detect and block
source-routed packets. Are NT firewalls somehow detecting and
dropping these things these days? Or is it true that NT firewalls are
unable to block this attack without help from another component with
half a brain (i.e., having the access router drop source routed
stuff)?
