Archived from groups: comp.security.firewalls (More info?)
Recently I have been getting hundreds of attempts to access my computer
according to Norton Firewall 2002 this has been caused by "Sokets de trois"
and I get many security alerts per day. I am using an ADSL connection
and there are 700-800 attempts per day. Is this something I should be
concerned about and is it a REAL threat?Also I am running Windows Xp Pro's
firewall in conjunction with Norton's (activated Windows as of yesterday) is
this helpful?/
thanks in advance
