Flexresp2 is a rewrite of the original using libdnet instead of  
libevent.  It prevents response loops (Which can result in Snort  
consuming 100% of your CPU or simply crashing), sends multiple  
responses to be certain a connection is terminated and in short  
pretty much works as intended.

The original is quite a bit more primitive and I wouldn't use it if  
you can avoid it.
