Also, this jumped out at me:
"The problem with the recent attack is that the originating IP addresses
were evenly distributed within the IPV4 universe," McAfee says. "This is
virtually impossible using spoofing."
Am I missing something, or is an even distribution of originating IP
addresses virtually impossible *without* using spoofing?
