Just installed ZA and don't know if this is the norm......but every 10mins I keep getting this warnng, not all the ISP's are the same.








If anyone could explain it would be much appreciated

By looking at your log, it appears that you are running Kazaa. The outside machine is trying to come in on port 1214 (this is the port that Kazaa uses to transmit data). This is probably someone trying to download files from you.

 

[Alan]

Nope don't have Kazza on my PC.



I have Blubster is that what it could be?

 

[Grinder714]

Could be any file sharing software.

Is it EXACTLY every 10 min?

 

[Alan]

Not exact but happening on a regular basis.


I really want to know if this is the norm?


What I'am trying to say is "Is there some one or something out there trying to access my PC or am I being paranoid"

Cheers
Alan

 

[Grinder714]

Could be your isp just scanning the network...unlikely someone would try to hack your pc.

Cheers Grinder

Did'nt think it was anythink serious............

Was just a bit worried about the frequent warning's.

I will keep you posted about the warning's

I have kept a log of all the ISP addy's

Cheers
Alan

[Grinder714]

All on the same port?

 

[Alan]

What dose that mean?

 

[Grinder714]

well nothing really, but not a hack attempt...donnt worry bout it.

 

[Grinder714]

Netbios, blah dont worry bout it...thats why I dont use firewalls....they tend to make you paranoid

alan - not trying to be smart or anything - but I think you should be more worried about having your NAV auto-protect disabled for the last 3 hours or so between your images! I would worry more about that than about any pings!!!

 

[Alan]

Well blow me away

How do you know that?

 

[Alan]

And by the way, that's smart

 

[damnyank]

Your images have the dreaded red X across the NAV icon

 

[Alan]

It's now abled
