After a few people e-mailed me for specifics, I was unable to find them
on either technet or via the search engines.  The topic came up this
summer at USENIX at a talk given by Marcus Ranum on IDS, when we took a
detour through firewalling, IDS, and applications that can encapsualte
traffic.  I know Napster was addressed as well as Netbios.  However,
unable to find any definitive information, I respectuflly withdraw my
comment.
