Relax. Andre was right (and he was polite too). Your firewall question is indeed off-topic.

unsubscribe questions are not strictly speaking off-topic, but they are answered indirectly in the footer of every mail you receive from this group.

I assure you I am totally relaxed. I wasn't rude -- that's your perception -- and I meant every word I said. If I can't ask hardware questions around here then I don't want to be here. And NO. There is nothing in the footer of the message that tells me how to unsubscribe. So you can either tell me how to do it or I'll put a hex on the list address and everything you send will be deleted before I see it.

So we can do it neat or we can do it sloppy. But we WILL do it one way or the other.
