Another good reason not to buy a Belkin router.

This is one of the slimiest things I've heard in some time.  What'll you bet me they got the idea from Verisign?  If you can't trust your own router, what the hell can you trust?

I can see the marketing campaign now:  "Belkin Routers -- Pre-Compromised For Your Convenience!"

Now all it needs is for someone to get hold of a copy of Belkin's trojanned firmware and modify it slightly to alter its parameters for what traffic it reroutes where under what conditions, then start spoofing firmware updates... who needs zombied computers when you can have entire zombied networks?
