Thanks. I was able to get in. I can clear out the *.blocked.* files and
hosts.deny, but is there any way to clear out the route without doing it one
by one? Because for the last several hours it looks like Portsentry was
adding EVERYONE to the list. People trying to connect to port 53 as well as
people trying to connect to port 80. I don't want to leave those people
blocked.

Thanks.
