an update to this software behaviour, I have recenently seen protected packet scrubber applications being created as ~implantable in-the-router firmware. To scrub the packet padding data of anything originated from the internal network progress.. I have also noted the increase in ISP's use of ARP floods to get network cards that are directly connected to broadband modems, or less than secure broadband routers, to send automatic responses to ARP to MAC broadcast who has IP requests, in hopes that everyone has the newest greatest software/hardware, that's pre-programed to leak internal padding info from buffer memory area, at a high rate scanning throug hundres of addresses per second, locking onto a few, then slowely directing ARP broadcasts towards the few over and over, hoping the new latest and greatest software/hardware is installed, so that the buffer data is filtered through the ARP ACK padding, or any/every other packet that goes out can send their padded packets to a new "router" capable of scrubbing data from the padded area.... wonder what it does with the data that it scrubs.......
