    Here's an on/off topic question i've been wondering about forever...

    I always see people replace their IPs with fake replacements.
    Is this paranoia really warranted? Why not disconnect the cat5 if you want
    to do this?

    Or am I not seeing things the right way?

    Thanks,
    Andrew
