OK, after reading the thread and thinking a bit, a couple of possible black ICE abilities, and a defence against one of them:

Affliction (Heart Attack, +300%; Malediction, +100%; No Signature, +20%; Ergokinesis, -10%; Melee Attack, C, -30%; Only on the 'net, -20%; Feature: Range is based on locations in cyberspace, not real space.) [46]

Toxic Attack 0d+10 (No Signature, +20%; Damage cannot exceed margin of victory, -50%; Ergokinesis, -10%; Only on the 'net, -20%; Feature: Range is based on locations in cyberspace, not real space.) [5/level]

Cyberpsi Shield
4 points per level

Skill: Cyberpsi Shield (Will/Hard).

Your psyberdeck, or your own power, provides your meat-body with resistance to the more direct forms of black ICE.

Statistics: Damage Resistance 1 (Ergokinesis, -10%; Only on attacks from the 'net, -20%) [4].

Thoughts?
