My firewall (Kerio) just gave me a strange message saying something along the lines that a miniport was created on my D-Link Dl10050 newtwork ethernet card. It asked me to select wheter this was a a trusted network and I said no because I didn't know why it had popped up.

I'm wondering if anyone here has any idea what could have caused this. My computer was idle except for BitComet (a BitTorrent downloading client).

Thanks.

Check to see if your firewall is totally protecting you guy use this test to find out if your secure and have any ports open .

Another one is called Shields Up and is a good test http://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?rh1dkyd2
