Hi,

Just a note to say if you would like to keep an eye on all incoming and outgoing traffic to and from your computer, it would be a good idea to install a good internet firewall.

I can personally recommend, Sygate Personal Firewall 5.5, it's free and available here:

To check the security of your connection try Shields UP! https://grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2

Here you can check all your ports and security of internet software ;)

If you are secure you should be accessing the internet in 'stealth mode', if not, don't panic, either get sygate personal firewall above because it works. Or I'm sure people here will have some suggestions for you ;)

waw i'm getting pretty good results
i'm using Kerio personal firewall since a few days.

used zonealarm for years, but that plays up with Emule alot.
And allso not sutch good results as Kerio now

Kerio has been reviewed as the best firewall at alot of tests, so
guess they are pretty right.

I'm gonna stay with kerio from now on

Which version of Kerio? Free or Pro? Is the free one adequate for home use?

anyone else get a "trustealth"
I did. I'm using Norton Internet Security 2003. Takes a long time to get updated after a clean install, but I rather like it. Came free with my motherboard. (and it can be cracked to extend subscription to 2041!!)
