Before I sign off tonight let me share with you the results of my firewall log, while being online only two hours!

Alerts from ZoneAlarm: 191 Alerts (Holy Smokes!)

Common Alert Cause (95%): Attempt to connect to port 6346

Most were from a handful of IP addresses...So naturally I assumed the worse and thought someone was attacking me...

A Google search turned up the following info:
The Gnutella Network that currently uses programs such as Limewire and Bearshare, attempts to connect computers together through port 6346, 6347 or 6348.
Apparently, BearShare and Limewire take adavantage of what I assume is a "resume" feature, so whoever was sharing with these people HAD the IP I was dynamically assigned tonight...so when those people tried to connect for their files, I got bombarded with attempts to connect to port 6346

Ok... Now I'm up to 206 alerts 15 more in the few minutes it took to write this post!

Just a little tid-bit about port 6346...And how it drove me and my firewall crazy!
