A common mistook.

Doing a simple NAT on outbound may be convenient, but is not good for
rest of net. Not only that, it may give out more info than you ever
considered.

Consider a simple little trojan or you installed something like Kazza,
or some other proggy you didn't realise was spyware/backdoor,
- your LAN is their oyster!
