I did a netstat in cmd and found out some interesting stuff each time I did it. For instance, today, it seems that someone is using netbios on my computer as it has netbios -ssn, -ns, and -dgm. How can I make sure that I have disabled netbios?

If you are running windows 2000 or Xp
Go to the Control Panel Right-click on "Network and Dial-up Connections" and choose Properties highlight "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" then Click the Properties button, Advanced button then Click the WINS tab
Change the radio button at the bottom to "Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP and then Click OK on all open dialog boxes
I would have to go with DeadAddict on that one. THose settings can also be a cause of a few DUN/RAS errors. I've had many of calls where those setting were wrong and by simply changing them back.
THANKS! the netbios stuff is gone and that annoying netbios alert that kept coming up on my firewall is also gone.
