Re: Getting "probed" by NTL customers.....
 

Mynetwatchman sends it off, and the team checks to see if its traffic or not. One on NTL did it 24 times, that can't be traffic can it?

I have these all of the time, just let your firewall deal with it.

I think I might just get a hardware fire wall, or a router.

Re: Getting "probed" by NTL customers.....
 

Well, I just checked the status of the "possible" attacks iv'e had, and mynetwatchman has reported them to those people's ISP's, but NTL hasn't responded to the NTL attacks yet. About 5 ISP's has responded.

That myNetWatchman is such a good system.

EDIT: Here is the link to the person on NTL HTTP port probing me, AND other people: http://www.mynetwatchman.com/LID.asp?IID=96504731

:D

He's right too :p:

I'm a hypocrypt though. I have a windows firewall :o

Mind you, I'm a nosey bugger and will have my bsd box back logging router snmp data some time soon. The windows firewall can go then :cool:

EDIT:

Just thought, what about all those programs phoning home :confused: How do you stop them without a windows firewall or a router that does not block outgoing data :shocked: :( ;)
