HI,

Is anyone else getting a lot of hits on 6346 and 1434 in both TCP and UDP ?

1434 is ms_sql-m but what use is 6346 for ?

Port 6346 is typically associated with the p2p file sharing protocol
Gnutella. Probably the reason you're getting probed is because the previous
user of your current IP was hosting a Gnutella server. Gnutella clients tend
to cache server IP addresses for a long time so now they think YOU have the
content they want.

The best response to this behavior is either ignore it, or better yet, force
an IP address change until you get an IP that doesn't have a history
associated with it.

Hi Tom,

That's right, I forgot about that.

I cleaned up my Firewall Rules and removed some Dead Wood Rules I
thought I didn't need.
Seems I should have kept that one so it didn't fill my Log.

Thanks for the help.

Kevin

Hi Tom.

I have another Question about other Ports that are hit often and as I
was sending the First Reply I got hit again that reminded me to ask.
Ports 80, 1434 and 1433.

Of course I also get the TCP and UDP on 1025-1030 I think are part of
Windows Messaging that I don't use and should sut off the Logging.

Hi Tom.

I forgot to add I have Netscape for an ISP and is owned by AOL but I
don't understand why I'm seeing so many hits on Port 80.

Even without any Browsers open.
(I use Netscape's Browser Netscape 7.2)

Many are AOL Users but just as many are not and have traced them to
China, Korea, Uk, AU, BR, US, and more.

I was seeing AOL Servers hitting me as well but I think Norm Miller
helped me find it may be connected to Windows Update.
