He has to be doing something else... such as the firewall, disabling of other services, etc.
What am I missing?
We're missing the same thing. I know for a FACT that the reg. tweak is the only thing he modifies.... Maybe it's because we're on the same network segment? BTW, what does AFAIK mean?
Thanx,

As Far As I Know. And I think if you were on a diff network segment then that would be more of a cause than being on the same network segment.

I still don't get it... do you get the same thing by enabling it on your PC? I sure don't...
Anyone else have any insight on what he claims is happening? I say "claims" because I can't reproduce it... I have this setting on all my hosts and I can see them all just fine.
Do you get the same thing with you try to scan with nessus? But instead of a defualt scan... disable the ping. It will scan even though it doesn't "see" anything there.

Try nmap -p0 ip . That *might* just work.

His box finally showed up when I disabled Ping and increased some of the time delays in my various scanners :D. Thanks for the tips! However, round 3 has already started, consequently, I can't ask him any more questions until Sunday.
Ok, so now I can finally see him, however, his box is completely non-responsive! No matter what type of probe I throw at him, his box refuses to give me any kind of reply... I've never seen anything like it! Eh, I got a week to figure it out. However any suggestions would be appreciated.
phishphreek80 - No, I didn't get the same result when I tweaked my 'puter... I don't know if he did something he's not telling me or if he did something by accident which would allow him to go stealth. I think it's the latter since he's usually an honest guy.
