I have opted for now to let portsentry shut the door on these addresses that
scan ports rather that shut the ports off before portsentry. This way, you
hit an unused port on my machine and the whole thing is a black hole in about
20 milliseconds so you can't get to the ports that are availible and try
anything.
Just a design decision.
