Just how secure is the UDP Protocol. Should I be blocking it?

It really depends on what is using UDP; UDP is as you say just a Protocol which carries data. The application will need to ecrypt the data at a higher level in the ISO Layer in order for UDP to carry encrypted data.
There dosent seem to be much point in blocking it though, especially if you are using some type of voice application through Messenger, Netmeeting, gamevoice or that Kazza thing as they all use UDP as the protocol for carrying voice as it dosent get retransmitted like TCP if there is a problem on the network.

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. 
Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
