Hey guys, in the past while ive started to get alot of 1214(kazaa) port scans. approx 2 every min. ive told my firewall not to log these scans. but still i would think this is slowing down my modem. now it's not like i can e-mail 10,000 isp's and tell them that thier scanning me, so i'm not quite sure what to do. perhaps calling up my isp?. i mean it's not like it takes 30 min to load a web page but still. Anyway Kazaa (minus lite i think) is a bunch of adware anyway.

:cool:

Not that I totaly agree with this but...

KaZaA, based on the FastTrack network, contains spyware and adware. Also, KaZaA does not share MP3s over 128kpbs by default.

If you already have KaZaA installed on your computer, a website called Rebound has a utility called KaZaA Rebound that will remove the spyware for you. Find it at the following URL:

If you do not have KaZaA installed on your computer, there is also a hacked client called KaZaA Lite which comes with it's own installer available. KaZaA Lite can be found at any of the following URLs:

Well, if it's a Kazaa user pinging you, they must be for a reason. Heck, post their IP here and I'm sure someone here would be happy to scan them for ya. ;)

I noticed that it took awhile before I stopped getting pinged on 1214, once I removed that piece of **** software.
