I have had errors like this before with my BIOS. It was every time I updated my BIOS, I got this error. For some reason every time I updated my BIOS it changed my configuration back to what it originally was, and I had to go back into the BIOS and change it back to the way I set it before. After ...

I already had like about 10 different copies of this virus sent to me. Each time Norton did its job. I have all my patches and the virus scanner is up to date!

Thank you for da info! It was VERY informative. I have created a block all communication rule for UDP-TCP ports 1900 and 5000. I dunno if it is an attack or wat. Da connections have been blocked so far by my Block UPnP rule by my firewall (I dont have UPnP installed anyway, but you know). The ...

I am wondering what SSDP is? My firewall is detecting and blocking UPNP trying to connect to SSDP port 1900?? Sumone know wat dis is? Thank you

Thank you. I will look into dis Outpost program. I think Norton is working good, but still, its a good idea to know wats out dere.

Thank you for your help with this. I will have to contact either the people at dat board, and/or my Router manufacturer. I probably isnt important since it is almost impossible to get around a NAT firewall, I think, but it is still nice dat no hackers have my IP. LOL Anyway, thank you for your help.

I do not believe dat it is a Personal Firewall problem, but a NAT/Router firewall problem. I did dat scan Croc gave me and it is, indeed, showing ONLY port 113 CLOSED but not in stealth mode. All da others are in stealth mode. Da suggestions I saw pertain to settings for a Personal Firewall. I ...

Thank you for your reply. It seems like a really good router but I like to get peoples opinion sometimes. It does seem feature rich to me, but I still would like to know how to get it to block port 113 (if I can). Anyway, thank you.

Thank you for your input I basically want a firewall dat I can block almost any attack dat someone may launch at me. But im guessing dat a Router with a firewall and a Software firewall pretty much does dat right?

Thank you again.

Ok, I have another small question :) How do I block Ident port 113? I am using an Efficient Networks Speedstream 2614 Router and Norton Personal Firewall. I have looked around da Routers Configuration screen but have been unable to find any options to block Port 113. It probably isnt dat important ...

I am connecting two computers threw a Siemens Speedstream 2614 Router threw a Cable Modem. So far I have not had any problems but I am woundering if this Router is concidered good or not? I havent seen anything about it here so I am just wondering...? :-) Thank you for your help :-)

I am using a Siemens SpeedStream 2614 Router and I am using Norton Personal Firewall dat came with Norton Utilities 2002. I am wondering if this software firewall is concidered to be any good? Thank you for your input. :-)
