Simple.  Don't bother filtering. Just connect your honeynet to your cable
modem, and don't surf the net or download your e-mail.  Anything that comes
across is probably a worm. :)

But Valdis is right -- what I would suggest is if you're running a
standard firewall setup that allows only outbound connection requests,
then instead of blocking incoming connection requests at the outside,
route them to your honeypot for logging/interaction.

Cheers,
Christian.
