Joe, Joe, Joe!!!!    I've UPDATED IT just for you. :) Now it's the:

The Ultimately Secure DEEP PACKET INSPECTION AND INTERFERENCE INTERFACE SYSTEM
Featuring signature-less anomaly detection and blocking technology with application awareness and layer-7 state 
tracking!!!

You'll be thrilled to see that I'm now offering it as a petabyte-capable
appliance, too. It does have some performance impact on traffic when
you enable it, though.

I.e.: "same sh&t, different marketing"
Much like all the "stateful inspection" firewalls and "intrusion prevention
systems" etc etc etc... 

mjr.
