The following is OT, but I have to say it:

This is an affront to every admin of smaller or bigger networks. It
hurts my eyes. What do you try to achieve by dropping unwanted traffic?
You even drop ICMP entirely - dropping ICMP is the cause of a large
number of problems.

There is no security advantage, but you deliberately prevent proper
communication between yourself and other computers on the internet.

Well I picked this configuration from Red Hat training books, except for port 54215 which I open for bit torrent.

What do you suggest about the ideal iptables configuration for basic desktop user - allowing proper connection as you said and yet stay secure from malicious port scanners ?

I did what you said:

Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 114.226 seconds

So it seems my ISP is running squid version 3.2.0.4-20110203 in transparent mode , just like you said.

Interestingly when connecting to random ip addresses on port 80, the error page returned is quite different from normal ones.

Does this transparent proxy pose any threat and what can I do to stop that ?
