It's true that encrypted/unencrypted ratio of p2p traffic increased
about 10 times for past 2 years. There were a lot of predictions
before about such situation will happen. I guess that we have revise

I'll start to reread about all netfilter features and it helps me to
figure out how to solve this problem.
