Steve,

Sorry to say but it is not! I checked my incoming traffic again this morning
and the attack on port 443 is still coming in full steam ahead! I don't know
what's going on, but I am about to block that port on my firewall. Some
nitwit (probably the idiot that was here before I became IT Director)
somehow, for some reason, deliberately opened port 443 on the firewalls!

I am beginning to think that this is the first wave of the new coming global
crypto-storm!
