Virginia Webb:
"How does a firewall affect that, does it keep out these programs?"

Michael Paris:
"Well, the firewall is only as good as the person who configures it or 
puts it together.  If they're blocking every single port, which isn't 
feasible, then of course these trojans can [sic] slip through.  If the 
person that configures it is well aware of the problem and what ports 
these trojans are using, then a firewall could be effective but by 
default configuration, no it's not."
