Probably pretty good advice.  But it screws up the Frazierwall report as =
the=20
firewall can't seem to keep up with it.  The log gets up to around 150KB =
and=20
drops the earliest hits.

I shut the modem and firewall down for over 24 hours and switched the eth=
0=20
board.  Now I am no longer getting hits on TCP port 18395.  They are UDP =
on=20
port 2849.  196 in the first 90 minutes.  Quite obviously, something is g=
oing=20
on that I don't understand.
