OK, dudes n dudettes, here’s the deal… every hacker n his dog runs a bot that searches thru IP addy’s n looks for open ports… cool… or not so cool depending on your lack of protection…
The deal here is to beat the hacker by running up to date anti virus software and a firewall such as ZoneAlarm which hides your ports from the web… deal? hacker screwed……… now… next question?
I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover!
Here let me take some worry out of exposing your IP address(es):
Here is a list of firewall manufactuers that have free copies of their products that you can use to detour someone (like myself) from entering your playground (aka computer or network).
Tiny Personal Firewall : http://www.tinysoftware.com
Zone Alarm: http://www.zonelabs.com
Kerio Firewall: http://www.kerio.com
Outpost Firewall by Agnitum : http://www.agnitum.com
Zygate Firewall: http://www.zygate.com
Once you download and install one of these products, please take the time to test them by going to one of these sites that specialize in firewall testing support:
AuditMyPC: http://www.auditmypc.com
SecureMe @ DSLReports.com : http://www.dslreports.com/secureme_go
GRC (home of Shields Up): https://grc.com
Hacker Wacker: http://hackerwhacker.com
If and when your firewall pasts those tests, you can then breathe a sigh of relieve knowing that your computer is protected.
