:), Long time ago on my win95b puter, the netbios was enabled, I joined into IRC chat online. the nuker runs a WinNuke make nuking on my system to totally controlless (cannot handle the data packets to wastes) to crashed it up, got a blue screen of death indicates "MACPPP" strings until I upgraded new DUN version. I disabled the NetBios setting which is never use that protocols. Until I downloaded nukenabber program (not a firewall program, only to be show alert warning), I added the Nukenabber script on my mIRC, if the nuker tried to nuke on mine, the script detected "Nuke" and kicked and banned on nuker out of the chatroom for example: HavocWarScript joined #blahblah Hello, you're f-ing lame room, I'm gonna crash your box! Hi! -> -#blahblah- NUKE DETECTED: HavocWarScript * Deafy set mode +b HavocWarScript@IPaddy.net * Deafy had kicked HavocWarScript from #blahblah (Nuke detected port 139) Hmmm.. nuker pretty lamer and dumb lol! H3ll yea! It's very OLD script :) 2 years later finally FREE zonealarm firewall downloaded I turn off the Nukenabber and removed it, installed the firewall, wow that beautifully blocking on them nothing get crashed on mine..

DBPowerWCRulez so what your trying to say is your a lamer that has to use a program to crash someones system. not only that it's just childs play anyway. i already know what the program is and what it does. do you know how to do it without a program or i should say a script kiddie prog. i used to play around with that when i was 14 seeing im 10 years older now im a lot into the more advanced setting or you can say elite.

If you're not using file sharing, the easiest way to close port 139 is to rename vnbt.386 to vnbt.old or delete it altogether. This will make 139 a stealth port.

Hi, Zone Alarm (Free version) is generally recognized as good security but ....... for whatever reason once in a while it just went wild and opens up everything ! ! I don't think this has to do with a hacker, the program itself just decides to take on an eagle trip whenever ! Exit and reenable Zone and everything goes fine again. Just want everybody to be on the alert, not thinking that Zone protects you every minute. It takes only a minute for a hacker to realize that you are suddenly without protection 'cause they are constantly scanning ! The best Firewall these days I can find is Kerio ! Superb, nothing to compare in detailed settings ! You can add as many rules as you want to block single port, or multi ports, single address or all, single program or all programs, differences of in's or out's settings, or combination of these settings, the types of protocol setting etc. Editing after rules setting up is also easy. I even set up extra TCP block to block Netscape from phoning home, which action otherwise actually gets away without notice because by default, some of the phoning functions of legitimate programs are not blocked by these Firewalls. You will just have to suspects, just have to know what to look for, and set up your own blocking rules. I suspect that most of the legitimate programs do do you-wash-my-back - and-I-wash-your-back stuffs ! On the other hand, automatically blocking wise, Zone blocks 2 while Kerio already does 80 incoming blocks ! Yes, Zone is too lazy, stuffs kept coming through and went out easily until I got Kerio, then I found out just how safe I was with Zone before ! Perhaps the paid-for Zone version can be better, I am not sure, never paid for a Zone yet. But as always, any of these security programs are actually spyware itself ! ! Every Firewall phones home, Even browser, M/S Explorer, M/S Internet Explorer, Netscape Browser, no difference, everyone wants to share that piece of the pie ...... Info on what customers wants, how customers set their browser, what other similar programs customers have in their machines, where surfed etc etc) Lastly, I had the 30 days (Was it 30 days ? ?) free trial version of Sygate Firewall, it gave me only one day’s use and declared that my time were up ! It then refused to work anymore :-) So I deleted the darn thing and called it the day ! Highlife was here, Ciao !

harry the only thing the other firewall that you use has is something to look at incoming and out going transmissions of programs other then that it looks like another cop off of zone alarm. not only that you meaning YOU have to learn then of what to set up as server or not . i would have to agree with my friend joe on this on bud. question how do you test your firewalls?
